Abstract
The Low Frequency Array (LOFAR) is Europe's largest radio telescope, designed, built and operated by ASTRON and international LOFAR partners. It is a complex instrument which had an expensive active human workflow and became difficult to adjust. The new Telescope Manager Specification System (TMSS) solves this by the introduction of a dynamic scheduler, a data-quality assessment workflow and a specification system that allows easy versioned specification of known observing setups but also detailed adjustments of observations and processing pipelines. In this presentation we will show the new optimized operations workflow and dynamic scheduling with TMSS....
