COSMIC: A Graph-Based, Extensible Framework for the Future of Adaptive Optics RTC development
AO demands rapid, real-time computation to counteract atmospheric perturbations. COSMIC emerges as a modern solution, employing a graph-based architecture where operations are intuitively represented as nodes. It aims at simplifying design, implementation, testing and integration by relying on robust concepts and useful tools. Notably, COSMIC harnesses GPUs for accelerated computation and is adept at scaling across multiple processes without overhead using shared memory. Recent updates have further enhanced its versatility, cementing its potential as a future-proof, extensible framework for AO advancements.
