Description

We invite you to join the 2nd Tango SIG meeting, held hybrid at ASTRON in Dwingeloo, The Netherlands, as well as in Zoom. The conference is free to attend, but we kindly that you register, especially if you visit in person.

 

The theme for this second meeting is Archiving and HDB++. The workshop consists of 1.5 days (Wednesday and Thursday morning) and will focus on:

  • Show & tell: practical demonstrations of people's recent work, and the exchange of ideas that follows.
  • Discussing the state of affairs and help shape the future of Archiving and HDB++.

 

We expect that these sessions allow us to really learn from each other what is possible, how others deal with specific issues, and what future directions seem best to serve our practical needs.

 

There is a possibility of joining a field trip to the LOFAR Core. If you want to join this field trip please select yes in the registration form. Most likely this will happen in the afternoon of Thursday, Nov 17th, so make sure your travel plans allow for this. And take appropriate clothing, as the LOFAR core is in a nature area.

      When/where the 3rd Tango SIG will be held, or how we are going to decide on that.

      A proposal that came up was "Tango Controls IDL v6", to discuss what should be in there and make an initial version (rc) for the IDL v6 file. The IDL v6 could support proposed functionality such as N-dimensional arrays, ALARM events, etc.
