Prototype VOEvent Network Systems based on VTP and XMPP for the SVOM Chinese Science Center

TL;DR

This paper describes the development of two prototype VOEvent network systems for the SVOM Chinese Science Center, utilizing VTP and XMPP protocols to facilitate automated and human-involved astronomical event communication.

Contribution

It introduces two novel prototype systems based on VTP and XMPP for VOEvent communication tailored for the SVOM project.

Findings

Successful demonstration of VOEvent controlled follow-up observation

Integration of VTP with global VOEvent network

Implementation of XMPP for cross-platform human communication

Abstract

We present the current progress of design and build of two prototype VOEvent network systems for the SVOM Chinese Science Center. One is based on VTP which is compatible with the global VOEvent network, the other is based on XMPP which enables cross-platform messaging and information sharing among human users. We also present a demonstration of VOEvent controlled follow-up observation, including triggering, observational data transferring, as well as other procedures.
