The Structure of Light Curve Programs and the Outlook for the Future

Chapter
Part of the Astronomy and Astrophysics Library book series (AAL)

Abstract

This chapter reflects the authors’ views on the structure of future light curve programs. It provides precepts for the structure of generic light curve programs and a preview of the coming decade with the goal of promoting further activities in EB research and light curve program development.
