Abstract: |
The Herschel Ground Segment Product Access Layer (PAL), an object oriented
software package that provides a consistent means for accessing Herschel Space
Observatory data products, isolates the complexity of underlying storage systems
and makes it possible for scientific data analysis scripts to be reused in
different environments and over a long period of time as software and hardware
evolve. The pluggable design of the PAL makes it easier for users to handle new
underlying storage systems and to optimize performance according to different
system characteristics. |
