Mon Jul 1 13:45:49 2019, Alex Patton, Status on optimizing AraSim
|
We ran valgrind (a profiler) on AraSim to find out where it was spending most of its time, we ran it with callgrind to give an output file of the time and
opened that file with qcashegrind to display it in a legible format. This let us know that the function Param_RE_Tterm_approx was taking up about
75% of the time because it was being called hundreds of millions of times. Now more specifically the standard math functions pow() and exp() were being |

|
We have 2 physical XF flash drive keys in existence. These are non-replaceable and cannot be lost! Until further notice, the keys are held by:

Wed Feb 27 16:29:35 2019, Julie Rolla, New To-Do List
|
Here are the following things we need to work on:
Paper (Julie and Suren)
Get loop working-- specifically XF (Cade)
Test GA (Suren)
Gain pattern plots |
Fri Feb 22 17:09:28 2019, Suren Gourapura, Updates that need to be added to the manual
|
We are redesigning the way we simulate antennas in our loop. To do this, we changed our simulationPEC macro skeletons and our output skeleton.
To make this easier, we changed the way we name the files, from i.uan where i is the simulation number, to i_j.uan where i is the antenna and
j is the frequency. |
Fri Feb 22 15:46:33 2019, Julie Rolla, Updated To-Do List
|
We are getting to the stage where we would like to verify each step. It has been requested by Amy that we verify them visually. Here are the plots we
need to make.
Add plotting for L & R parameters (note that we already have similar software to this from the dipole check. You can find this in |
Fri Feb 22 15:43:36 2019, Julie Rolla, Proposal requests for XF (Remcom)
|
Here are a list of things we wish XF would do. We are keeping this list in hopes to add it to a proposal with them.
Save pictures of CAD drawings of simulations.
Close/quit XF GUI. App.quit doesn't actually work for us.
Suppress
the GUI and run solely through terminal.

Thu Feb 21 14:07:14 2019, Julie Rolla, Logging into Nutau via XRDP
|
As mentioned in the manual, using ssh to login to Nutau causes delays; the XFdtd GUI cannot be surpress and must be forwarded via X11 forwarding, and
this is extremely slow. We are currently looking into using a newly suggested option, XRDP. Information will be added as this process continues. |
