FITS文件管理器(FITS Manager)着眼于对中小规模数量的FITS文件的管理,实现对FITS文件的快速查找、预览以及相关处理。在不改变天文学家现有工作习惯的前提下融入虚拟天文台先进的技术和功能。FITS Manager采用了日趋流行的插件式软件开发模式,在完成了软件跨平台的同时极大地增强了软件的可扩展性。在FITS Manager中,所有的应用功能都由功能插件完成,软件核心组件则为应用插件提供了简便的接口、提高公用功能的复用程度。通过社区开发的模式不断添加各种功能的插件,FITS Manager将努力成为天文学家处理FITS文件的高效平台。
The software package FITS File Manager(FITS Manager)is mainly for managing small and medium number of FITS files,providing quick search,preview,and related processing functions.The FITS Manager adopts advanced technologies for the Virtual Observatory without changing working habits of astronomers.The development mode of the FITS File Manager is through the increasingly popular plug-in based architecture,which easily achieves cross-platform and scalability.In the FITS File Manager,all application functions are accomplished by plug-ins,and a core component provides a simple interface for the plug-ins to enhance the reusability of common functions.With more plug-ins for a variety of applications developed and contributed from the user community,the FITS File Manager will become an efficient platform for astronomers to handle FITS files.
