ISDAT General Requirements

• An interactive data analysis environment that allows independent analysis programs (clients) to co-operate, enabling the user to analyse and view data sets from different projects and instruments.
• Raw data unpacking, de-commutation, and calibration in a server "hidden" from the application processes (clients). This should provide a uniform way to access data from different projects in a uniform manner and also provide a well controlled maintenance of the software since the above mentioned fumctions would reside in one known location in the software.
• Access to several data bases concurrently, locally or remotely.
• Operation over local and wide area networks.
• "Pipe mechanisms" to allow the user to modify the behaviour of existing programs at run time. Thus it should be possible to "pipe" the data through a set of filters set up by the user. The filters should be separate progrms that can perform for example time series analysis, data export/import etc.
• Interfaces to commercial program packages as for example IDL and MATLAB.
• Means for the user with little programming experience to add new data analysis programs. Extensive library support should aid in such developments.
• Means to easily set together analysis programs from different research laboratories.
• Operation on several of the commonly used types of work stations.
