Optimizations of CW are done from the point of view of Virtual Data. l Can perform AW planning based on application-level metadata attributes. l Given attributes such as time interval, frequency of interest, location in the sky, etc., Pegasus is currently able to produce any virtual data products present in the LIGO pulsar search Pegasus: Planning for Execution in Grids

23. Virtual Galaxy Cluster System: An Application of the GriPhyN Virtual Data Toolkit to Sloan Digital Sky Survey Data Chicago, Argonne, Fermilab

24. 13.01.2003EAC Review24 The Brightest Cluster Galaxy Pipeline Interesting intermediate data reuse made possible by Chimera: maxBcg is a series of transformations Cluster finding works well with 1 Mpc radius apertures. If one instead was looking for the sites of gravitational lensing, one would rather use a 1/4 Mpc radius. This would start at transformation 3. l 1: extracts galaxies from the full tsObj data set. l 2: filter the field for Bright Red Galaxies. l 3: calculate the weighted BCG likelihood for each galaxy, most expensive. l 4: is this galaxy the most likely galaxy in the neighborhood? l 5: remove extraneous data, and store in a compact format.
