Number of users, size of data

[mwapst]

For the expected lifetime of the PST are there any estimates (upper, lower, and average) of the number of

• discrete and concurrent users
• proposals and rate of creation
• investigators per proposal
• observations per proposal
• spectral and timing windows per target per proposal
• document numbers and volume per proposal
• required equipment per proposal
• observatories and organisations taking part
• TACs per observatory
• equipment and its spectral windows, arrays, and configurations per observatory
• submitted proposals per observatory per cycle
• allocated proposals per observatory per cycle
• probably others

These estimates would help size the capacity and performance requirements

[pahjbo]

For the expected lifetime of the PST are there any estimates (upper, lower, and average) of the number of

• discrete and concurrent users

discrete users in 1000s
concurrent users in 10s (near submission time)

• proposals and rate of creation

proposals in 1000s and maybe 100s per day (near submission time)

• investigators per proposal

1-10

• observations per proposal

typically only a few if single target - however could be 1000s for surveys

• spectral and timing windows per target per proposal

a few

• document numbers and volume per proposal

< 10 (documents are intended to be images to be included in the justifications)

• required equipment per proposal

• observatories and organisations taking part

perhaps 10

• TACs per observatory

typically only one

• equipment and its spectral windows, arrays, and configurations per observatory
• submitted proposals per observatory per cycle

10s - 1000s

• allocated proposals per observatory per cycle

10s-100s
