Description
The Square Kilometre Array (SKA) project is too large to be managed with simple approaches and tools, due to the ensemble of interacting hardware and software which make the control and monitor task extremely complex. We have now identified the right tools to solve this task, and the current challenge is to find the smartest strategies to implement the whole SKA project by using those tools.
The current efforts performed by the three Italian teams working on this software challenge are presented here. Four main areas of work are involved:
1)Hardware control in the Low telescope aperture array beamformer (LFAA)
2) Monitoring and control of the CSP (Central Signal Processing) and of its interactions with Telescope Manager and real processing HW sub-elements.
3) Development of a flexible and easy-to-use tool for quickly creating engineering user interfaces for TANGO devices monitoring and control (Taranta).
4) Implementation of continuous integration and continuous delivery (CI/CD) practices for the SKA software, including services (monitoring, logging) for the life-cycle control and maintenance.
