== Current Tasks for the IPP Team == 
[[PageOutline]]

(Up to [wiki:WikiStart Main Page])

== KPAT / DRAVG Priority Issues (+ Notes) ==

 * latency
  * we have performed a [wiki:ThroughputDemo_20091104 throughput demonstration] which meets requirements.

 * magic masking
  * the latest large-scale run had a median streak count of 8.
  * we need to make an assessment of the current state of masking by masking bit (both warp and chip)

 * stacking: noise correlation
  * we believe this has been addressed by Paul's recent work
  * we need to create a set of examples for evaluation.
  * This is a high priority for this week (2009.11.09)

 * diffims: residuals and noise correlation
  * we have made some good progress on this with the dual convolution technique, and will generate a set of test images this week.
  * another significant source of residuals comes from poor astrometry
  * we also also working on improving the quality of the detection analysis and the associated photometry in the diff images

 * astrometry: some catastrophic failures (offsets>3")
  * some progress made in some extreme fields (M42). this may also result in improvements in other poor situations.  otherwise under investigation.

 * xtalk artifacts.
  * for the near term, we will address this by masking the worst offenders in the camera masking stage.
  * still need to pin down the xtalk rules, but we can implement the xtalk we know.
 
 * other image artifacts.

== Other Near-Term Goals ==

 * address warp failures (photometry problem on 3 warps in throughput test)
 * someone needs to put together code that feeds back quality info to summit

=== Eugene Magnier ===

 * psphot & difference images
 * flat-field correction
  * run more flattests
 * zero points -- use 'blue edge' and full camera
 * extended sources
  * set upper limits on Petrosian radii
  * make sure new structures are linked into output functions
  * generate a more complete test set & run tests
 * minor ippMonitor & DVO issues
 * more data organization work on Manoa & MHPCC clusters
 * ingest giebink stuff into svn trunk

=== Heather Flewelling === 

 * MD08 (& other MD) stacks
 * more magic evaluation
 * megacam -> nebulous
 * simtest work (consistency, etc)
 * sdss photometry comparison (start with flat-field correction tests)

=== Bill Giebink ===

 * DIMM work
 * psLib & psModules test code 
 * build a "realtest" 

=== Paul Price ===

 * check stack code to trunk 
 * run dual-diffs tests 
 * examine other pending tasks

=== Bill Sweeney ===

 * distribution
  * cleanup
  * add label ability to client
 * pstamp
  * select different data products
  * cleaned runs (need to fix labeling for update issues)
  * enhance web interface with new features

=== Chris Waters ===

 * xtalk implementation
 * data quality feedback to OTIS
 * nebulous
  * unavailable instances errors still outstanding
  * replicate bug & random machine replication
 * assessment of stacking detection limits

=== Natalia Primak ===

 * simtest input / output consistency checks
 * simtest visualizations

=== Cindy Giebink & Steph Mohr ===

 * ready to turn on replication of gpc1, with some research
 * memory tests
 * memory swaps on ipp005, etc.
