  • Thursday off
  • IPP Czar on Tue and Wed
  • MOPS Czar (all week but no obs on Thu and Fri)
  • Stand-by concerning databases replication (waiting for the replication host)
  • Contacted Bill Giebink concerning the test framework. Some stuff is running on ipp002. I didn't have the time to go into the details.
  • Tessellation: I got the software/scripts on Tuesday. I ran some experiments on Wednesday and I sent some results that seemed excellent on Wednesday (better N/fov size ratio and smaller inter-cells distance). I spent Friday looking at some references for the problem to figure out if the number of observations could be decreased. Unfortunately, on Friday at 5:30PM, I was told that the metrics that I thought were to be optimized were not the right ones. I will start again on Monday... I'm missing the tool that give the number of observations disks a given point falls in.

  • Reorganized warptool -towarped to avoid very long query time when lots of warp runs are outstanding. The problem was with the way 'order by priority' was implemented.
  • Implemented changes to publishing system to allow OSS and 3pi detections to be processed simultaneously.
  • Created chip runs for the CNP calibration fields. Rediscovered bug in getting stars reference catalogs near the pole.
  • Created new MD04 tessellation MD04.V3 which has pixel size closer to the gpc1 camera. Queued new set of warps for those.
  • Studied chip processing in preparation for implementing replicated outputs and better handling of update errors.
  • Wrangled some exposures through the system to the rsync server for the outreach program.
  • Debugged and repaired more problems with MPIA postage stamp data store. Looks like I my have inadvertently deleted some data files. Now that I understand how the system is configured it will be easier to debug problems in the future.
  • Debugged and fixed problem on postage stamp request form.
  • One day as official processing czar. Other days was a pest for the acting processing czar. (Fix the faults!)
