Perspects in astrophysical databases

Astrophysics has become a domain extremely rich of scientific data. Data mining tools are needed for information extraction from such large datasets. This asks for an approach to data management emphasizing the efficiency and simplicity of data access; efficiency is obtained using multidimensional access methods and simplicity is achieved by properly handling metadata. Moreover, clustering and classification techniques on large datasets pose additional requirements in terms of computation and memory scalability and interpretability of results. In this study we review some possible solutions

Planck LFI – Onboard Processing and Ground Segment Simulator Software

This document describes the module simulating the onboard processing of PType 2 data and the subsequent decoding and conversion to TOI in the DPC L1. The scope of the module is to allow the estimation of processing errors for given LFI on-board processing parameters, to simulate the effect of processing errors on real data streams. The module is designed to work both stand-alone or as part of a more complex pipeline
