Some Project Element Interfaces Project Element Interfaces Definition Issues 1. Site & Infrastructure 2. Antenna / Beamformer 3. Receivers 4. Correlator 5. Monitor & Control System M&C  Correlator 6. Real Time System 7. RTC and Networks 8. Data ArchiveMRO disks  Perth archive 9. Commissioning Commissioning Plan 10. Operations Project Review of M&CProject Review of RTSMRO computer plan

Interface and Planning: Recent Developments Will we save correlator data?yes Where will RTS run?MRO Second RTS version running in Perth?likely (test revisions; test algorithms; archive re-processing) How do we transfer data from MRO to Perthfiber link + disk backup Estimated load (100% duty cycle) on 10 GBS link, MRO to Perth Correlator auto- and cross-correlations 16% (256 ccors and xcors every 0.5 s; scaled, 16-bits per array) RTS data (HEALpix files at 200 s; also use 16 bit, scaled?)18% Double the data rate load if 32-bit words are necessary Backup Plan for Link Outages: disk costs ~$60K. 2 weeks (100% duty cycle) x 2 sets (transportation)

Management Challenges for 2012 (Systems Level) Project Review of M&C; early 2012 (complete ICDs; test expansion to 128T) Project Review of RTS; early 2012 (complete ICDs; simulations for 128T) Complete Computer & Networking Plan; 1 st quarter 2012 (RTC + others) Complete Data Products and Archiving Plan; 1 st quarter 2012 Complete Commissioning Plan; 2 nd quarter 2012 (Commissioning is complex & coming fast; needs organization & automation) Accepted Operations Plan; 1 st quarter 2012 (now in draft 3; topic Tues. & Thurs.; needed for Operations proposal(s))

Additional Comments: Management Challenges for 2012 Tom will need help with system-level project management tasks, while he is working on site preparation, procurement, hardware deployment, CSIRO relations, and AAL communications during the Construction Phase in early Science package leaders must refresh their organizations for: team members, data needs, science software, and involvement in Commissioning phase.
