Dysco 1.3

Dysco v1.3 is a very minor change compared to v1.2. Because casacore includes Dysco nowadays, this repository is mostly for situations where a recent version of casacore is not available.

Dysco 1.2

Minor update to fix compilations issues with newer versions of Casacore. This version compiles with Casacore 3.0.

Dysco 1.1

This release fixes a few small issues:

• This release supports Dysco-compressed sets with read-only access (#5).
• A portability compilation option was added to the CMake config, that allows the creation of machine-independent binaries (#4).
• The number of encoding threads is limited to 8, which solves a problem on pipelines that open 10s of sets at the same time and run on nodes with a high nr of cores.
• Slightly better error messages when:
  • a file seems corrupted;
  • creating a thread fails.
• Some code clean-up, some related to C++11 fixes.

Dysco 1.0.1

This release fixes a minor issue in v1.0, in particular it makes the cmake configuration Debian compliant ( #3 ). It is otherwise equivalent to v1.0.

Dysco 1.0

This is the first official release of the Dysco compressed storage manager for Casacore measurement sets. It is format-stable, well tested and in production in several projects. This version supports compressing data and weight columns using the normalization/quantization technique described in https://arxiv.org/abs/1609.02019 .
