SDAST Developer's Forum

This is a meeting place where all the people involved in developing and writing the code of the JEM-X Instrument Specific Software (ISSW), can share their thoughts, ideas, progress, triumphs and failures. To get your code/emails/notes onto this page, please send the item as an email attachment to me, Carol Anne, at oxborrow@dsri.dk. Send a comment too to indicate where best this item might fit in with other contributions already on the page. At the moment the page is at a very rudimentary and sparse stage, but it is hoped that it will develope into a useful resource for all of us.

DETAILED DESIGN DOCUMENT

There will be separate design documents for each of JEM-X's 11 components. The latest version of each is available below. These are NOT official releases of these documents, they are just a way of letting each other see how we are tackling certain problems.
