| Abstract: |
The HEASARC at NASA/GSFC has hosted an on-line astronomical data processing
system called Hera for several years. Hera provides a complete data
processing environment, including installed software packages, local data
storage, and the CPU resources needed to support astronomical research by
external users. The original design of Hera was based on a ‘client/server’
model which required that the user a) download and install a small helper
program on their own computer before using Hera, and b) ensure that several
non-standard computer ports/sockets be open for communication through any
local firewalls on the user's machine. Hera has now been redesigned to
eliminate these restrictions by operating within a purely Web-based
environment which is accessed via a standard Web browser. Web-Hera is
available at http://heasarc.gsfc.nasa.gov/webHera. |
