I began the summer collecting data on the patterns of satellites. We were mapping what paths they take through the atmosphere, by determining which ground stations they are visible from. Once we know how various types of satellites travel, we can get a general idea of which ground stations will be able to see a generic satellite and how long it will take the satellite to pass between them.

My next project for the summer was the user-interface for their automatic scheduling system. Laura had written an interface a few years ago, and I was to work with it and update it. The interface was written in Java's AWT.

The last portion of my summer I worked with the Cameron group. They have written a language, SA-C, which uses only loops and arrays. I was implementing a variety of parallel sorts, such as Bitonic Sort and Odd-Even Sort.
