| 2 <p>Based on the requirement that all results produced by the LTP Data Analysis software must be | |
| 3 easily reproducible as well as fully traceable, the idea of implementing analysis objects (AO) as | |
| 4 they are described in S2-AEI-TN-3037 arose.</p> | |
| 5 | |
| 6 <p>An analysis object contains all information necessary to be able to reproduce a given result. For | |
| 7 example | |
| 8 <ul> | |
| 9 <li>which raw data was involved (date, channel, time segment, time of retrieval if data can be | |
| 10 changed later by new downlinks)</li> | |
| 11 <li>all operations performed on the data</li> | |
| 12 <li>the above for all channels of a multi-channel plot</li> | |
| 13 </ul> | |
| 14 </p> | |
| 15 <p>The AO will therefore hold | |
| 16 <ul> | |
| 17 <li>the numerical data belonging to the result</li> | |
| 18 <li>the full processing history needed to reproduce the numerical result</li> | |
| 19 </ul> | |
| 20 </p> | |
| 21 | |
| 22 <p>The majority of algorithms in the LTPDA Toolbox will operate on AOs only (these are always methods | |
| 23 of the AO class) but there are also utility functions which do not take AOs as inputs, as well as methods | |
| 24 of other classes. Functions in the toolbox are designed to be as simple and elementary as | |
| 25 possible. </p> | |
