Background
• Theory with the VO?
• Not just synthetic telescopes
• Publishing codes via the Web
Zeus Overview
• The Good
– F77 (language of the Gods)
– Free for academic use
– Widely used, flexible
• The Bad
– F77 (language of the Gods)
– Complex to build (CPP,G77,libraries)
– Difficult to use, easy to break
Portal Overview
• Why?
– Make Zeus3D available to researchers
• Advantages over existing methods
• Use Grid to distribute computation
• Visualise results quickly
– Demonstrate theory on the VO
– Explore integration of existing components.
• Globus, MySpace, Tomcat, NimRod
– Local demand at Melbourne University
