Athena is a Software project intended to develop a software developers kit for the HPSDR radio system. The objective of the project is to provide a multi-platform code basis that will help programmers write client programs using the output of the HPSDR boards. Project goals include:
- - Develop libraries of functions to help programmers easily access the server.
- - Document all the communications protocols and the Library Application Protocol Interface (API)
- - Development of IO compatible server code to communicate with the HPSDR hardware and communicate with client programs with UDP/TCP commands.
- - Develop a set of operating specific server code that maintains IO compatibility.
This project will be run as a moderated open source software project. Code contributions will be evaluated as to the degree it contributes to the over all goals of the project and whether there are undesired interactions with existing code.
Athena is the Greek goddess of home industry including spinning, weaving and carpentry. She is also the goddess of wisdom and known to be very clever, She is also the goddess of war. This is a good name for the server program that is the main connection between many parts of a HPSDR system.
Project leader is Dave Larsen, KV0S
Team members include:
- John Melton, G0ORX/N6LYT
- Bill Tracey, KD5TFD
Ideas, comments and suggestions are welcome.
