...
- Runs once per GW event reported from Global GW detectors
- Large variability in CPU requirement due to varying size of GW localization in sky
- Estimate 300 core-hours per day per GW event (e.g., 10 hours on 30 cores)
→This would be 4 hequ hosts for about 10 hours per GW event
...
- Batch jobs submitted to follow up on flare alert
...
- , typically once/day at most
- Batch job runs ~30 minutes on ~100 cores?
→About 12 hequ-class nodes are needed for this analysis
Burst Analysis
- Batch job(s) submitted to follow up on gamma-ray burst detection
- Six jobs/burst, medium queue, rhel6
- Recent 7-day week had 11 triggers, so >1/day
→Six hequ batch nodes should cover this need
FAVA (Fermi All-Sky Variability Analysis)
- Runs weekly
- Could Can postpone routine FAVA analysis until after the outage
