Database Astronomy using HORB

Seiichi Yoshida

May 19, 1998 2nd HORB Symposium

Abstract

This article introduces an application using HORB in database astronomy. First of all, I show you the overview of database astronomy and introduce the MISAO project which I am working on now. Then I emphasize the importance of network environment in this field, and describe the roles of Java and HORB in my project. In the latter part, I introduce the application system of my project, PIXY system. I explain the modules structure and the server/client model in detail. Finally I observe the future of database astronomy, what can be done using HORB.
