Scientific paper

The Black Board SelfCal (BBS) system is designed as the final processing system to carry out the calibration of LOFAR in an efficient way. In this paper we give a brief description of its architectural and software design including its distributed computing approach. A confusion limited deep all sky image (from 38-62 MHz) by calibrating LOFAR test data with the BBS suite is shown as a sample result. The present status and future directions of development of BBS suite are also touched upon.
Although BBS is mainly developed for LOFAR, it may also be used to calibrate other instruments once their specific algorithms are plugged in.
