SeisNetWatch Overview

SeisNetWatch is designed as a control and observation tool for seismic networks, to be used by network operators to monitor the state of health of the network and to control the data acquisition software.

The SeisNetWatch system is a three-tiered distributed system of agents, NetworkStationInfo (NSI) server, and GUI front-end client. Agents collect data and control the acquisition software and communicate over the network to the NSI server. The NSI server is the centralized decision making tool that receives the agent's messages and passes on filtered data to the client.

The client is provided as a Java Applet and the NSI server is a Java Application. The Collection and Control Agents may be written in C++ or Java. The collection agents provided to CalTech are written in C++ and monitor data from comserv shared memory and datalog files. The control agent, written in Java, provides control over shell scripts which change the "usage" of the station. The communications between the agents and the SeisNetWatch server (NSI server) are accomplished using the CORBA Event Service and communication between the client and the NSI are via CORBA objects.
