An Integrated Management System of Multipoint Space Weather Observation

Abstract

An outline of a planned system for the global space-weather monitoring network of NICT (National Institute of Information and Communications Technology) is given. This system can manage data collection much more easily than our current system by installations of autonomous recovery, periodical state monitoring, and dynamic warning procedures. According to a provisional experiment using a network simulator, the new system will work under limited network conditions, e.g., a 160 msec delay, a 10 % packet loss rate, and a 500 Kbps bandwidth.
