An Astronomical Data Analyzing Monitor

  • Chapter

Part of the book series: Ettore Majorana International Science Series ((EMISS,volume 24))

Abstract

The need for exchange of programmes and data between astronomical facilities is generally recognized (e.g. Sedmak et al., 1979, and papers therein), but practicable concepts concerning its realization are rare. Standardization of data formats through FITS (Wells et al., 1981) is widely accepted; for (interactive) programmes, however, identical hardware configurations seem to be the favoured solution. As an alternative, a software approach to the problem is presented.
