Abstract: |
The ISO Data Archive (IDA) has been developed by the ESA ISO Data Centre at Villafranca, Spain. Since its release to the community in December 1998, it has offered a state-of-the art archive facility to access ISO data products and auxiliary files. It is accessible at ISO data products Early in 2001, it was decided to develop the XMM-NEWTON Science Archive (XSA) based on the successful and flexible IDA architecture and design. This means re-using not only design and code, but also experienced manpower resources, in order to deliver the XSA first public release in March 2002, when proprietary XMM-NEWTON data first becomes public. This paper details the re-usability aspects applied to build the XSA from the IDA, which reduced development and maintenance costs significantly, and homogenized the look-and-feel of archive interfaces across ESA astronomical satellite missions. |
