MODELING MILESTONES FOR THE TDR
TASK                                                        Date
Documented testbed results of Ptolemy and Simdaq                1/01
  + comparison of testbed measurements
     o includes small and not so small configurations

Documented results of 1 to 256 node runs on Chiba City          1/01
  + runs with fast ethernet/UDP, Myrinet/MPI, with & w/o algorithms

Reconfiguration of models to conform to Phase 1 (S)             3/01
  + should include test measurements with
    component timing and processor utilization - this places
    a demand on phase 1 (time stamps in and out for each
    component, network inferred from these results)

Preliminary UML diagrams describing HLT/ROS/Data Coll.          5/01
  + Interaction diagrams and others required to characterize
    system timing and component interactions

Review of paper model and update to current parameters          6/01
  + include updating of trigger tables and expected performance

Generic model update                                            6/01

Evaluation of model frameworks                                  7/01
  + review of suitability to task
     o includes completeness, accuracy, speed, flexibility, people
       (which will get the job done - if both then which is best)

Selection of primary and secondary framework                    7/01
  + primary framework should have complete set of components & results

UML interaction diagrams for all system components available    7/01

Comparison to phase 2A results                                  8/01

Tuning of parameters to 2A results as needed complete           9/01

Full set of component models                                   10/01

Documentation of component models (includes 2A comparison)     11/01

Comparison to phase 2B results (S)                              1/02

Documented phase 2B comparison (S)                              2/02

Complete system model                                           5/02

Review of paper model and update to current parameters          6/02
  + include updating of trigger tables and expected performance

Review of phase 2B->2C changes and model updates complete (S)   7/02

Documentation of system model                                   8/02

Comparison to phase 2C results                                  8/02

Complete system characterization                                8/02

Documentation of system model results (includes phase 2C)       9/02
 

KEY: (S) means the milestone is not ABSOLUTELY necessary and
         can slip or disappear without causing critical damage
         to the program
