Assessing Effects of Asymmetries, Dynamics, and Failures on a Cloud Simulator

March 29, 2015
Author(s)
Kevin L. Mills, James J. Filliben, Christopher E. Dabrowski
We characterize the effects of asymmetries, dynamics, and failures when introduced into a cloud computing simulator, which had previously been characterized under static, homogeneous configurations with various patterns of demand and supply. We aim to

The Pan-STARRS1 Photometric System

May 10, 2012
Author(s)
J. L. Tonry, Christopher W. Stubbs, Keith R. Lykke, Peter Doherty, I. S. Shivvers, W. S. Burgett, K. C. Chambers, K. W. Hodapp, N. Kaiser, R -. Kudritzki, E. A. Magnier, J. S. Morgan, P. A. Price, R. J. Wainscoat
The Pan-STARRS1 survey is collecting multi-epoch, multi-color observations of the sky north of declination −30 to unprecedented depths. These data are being photometrically and astrometrically calibrated and will serve as a reference for many other

High-stability transfer of an optical frequency over long fiber-optic links

August 1, 2008
Author(s)
Paul A. Williams, William C. Swann, Nathan R. Newbury
We present theoretical predictions and experimental measurements for the achievable phase noise, timing jitter, and frequency stability in the coherent transport of an optical frequency over a fiber-optic link. Both technical and fundamental limitations to
