__init__(*, monitor_parameters)

OnDA Monitor for X-ray Emission Spectroscopy.

This Processing class implements and OnDA Monitor for X-ray Emission Spectroscopy experiments. The monitor processes camera data frames,extracting an energy spectrum from each of the data frames. The monitor computes smoothed and averaged spectral data information and broadcasts it to external programs (like OM's XES GUI, for visualization. In time resolved experiments, the monitor can process spectra for pumped and dark events separately, and compute their difference.

This monitor is designed to work with cameras or simple single-module detectors. It will not work with a segmented detector.

This class implements the interface described by its base Protocol class. Please see the documentation of that class for additional information about the interface.

Parameters:

Name Type Description Default
monitor_parameters MonitorParameters

An object storing OM's configuration parameters.

required

initialize_processing_node(*, node_rank, node_pool_size)

Initializes the processing nodes for the XES Monitor.

This function initializes the the spectrum extraction algorithm, plus some internal counters.

Please see the documentation of the base Protocol class for additional information about this method.

Parameters:

Name Type Description Default
node_rank int

The OM rank of the current node, which is an integer that unambiguously identifies the current node in the OM node pool.

required
node_pool_size int

The total number of nodes in the OM pool, including all the processing nodes and the collecting node.

required

initialize_collecting_node(*, node_rank, node_pool_size)

Initializes the collecting node for the XES Monitor.

This function initializes the data accumulation algorithms and the storage buffers used to compute statistics on the aggregated spectral data. Additionally, it prepares all the necessary network sockets.

Please see the documentation of the base Protocol class for additional information about this method.

Parameters:

Name Type Description Default
node_rank int

The OM rank of the current node, which is an integer that unambiguously identifies the current node in the OM node pool.

required
node_pool_size int

The total number of nodes in the OM pool, including all the processing nodes and the collecting node.

required

process_data(*, node_rank, node_pool_size, data)

Processes a detector data frame and extracts spectrum information.

This function processes retrieved data events, extracting an energy spectrum from each of them. It additionally prepares the spectral data for transmission to to the collecting node.

Please see the documentation of the base Protocol class for additional information about this method.

Parameters:

Name Type Description Default
node_rank int

The OM rank of the current node, which is an integer that unambiguously identifies the current node in the OM node pool.

required
node_pool_size int

The total number of nodes in the OM pool, including all the processing nodes and the collecting node.

required
data Dict[str, Any]

A dictionary containing the data that OM retrieved for the detector data frame being processed.

  • The dictionary keys describe the Data Sources for which OM has retrieved data. The keys must match the source names listed in the required_data entry of OM's om configuration parameter group.

  • The corresponding dictionary values must store the the data that OM retrieved for each of the Data Sources.

required

Returns:

Type Description
Tuple[Dict[str, Any], int]

A tuple with two entries. The first entry is a dictionary storing the processed data that should be sent to the collecting node. The second entry is the OM rank number of the node that processed the information.

wait_for_data(*, node_rank, node_pool_size)

Receives and handles requests from external programs.

This function receives requests from external programs over a network socket and reacts according to the nature of the request, sending data back to the source of the request or modifying the internal behavior of the monitor.

Please see the documentation of the base Protocol class for additional information about this method.

Parameters:

Name Type Description Default
node_rank int

The OM rank of the current node, which is an integer that unambiguously identifies the current node in the OM node pool.

required
node_pool_size int

The total number of nodes in the OM pool, including all the processing nodes and the collecting node.

required

collect_data(*, node_rank, node_pool_size, processed_data)

Computes statistics on aggregated spectrum data and broadcasts them.

This method overrides the corresponding method of the base class: please also refer to the documentation of that class for more information.

This function computes aggregated statistics on spectral data received from the processing nodes. It then broadcasts the aggregated information to external programs for visualization.

Please see the documentation of the base Protocol class for additional information about this method.

Parameters:

Name Type Description Default
node_rank int

The OM rank of the current node, which is an integer that unambiguously identifies the current node in the OM node pool.

required
node_pool_size int

The total number of nodes in the OM pool, including all the processing nodes and the collecting node.

required
processed_data Tuple[Dict, int]

A tuple whose first entry is a dictionary storing the data received from a processing node, and whose second entry is the OM rank number of the node that processed the information.

required

end_processing_on_processing_node(*, node_rank, node_pool_size)

Ends processing on the processing nodes for the XES Monitor.

This function prints a message on the console and ends the processing.

Please see the documentation of the base Protocol class for additional information about this method.

Parameters:

Name Type Description Default

end_processing_on_collecting_node(*, node_rank, node_pool_size)

Ends processing on the collecting node for the XES Monitor.

This function prints a message on the console and ends the processing.

Please see the documentation of the base Protocol class for additional information about this method.
