Download submission interface

This is version 1.3.6 of the PET and fMRI submission interface.

Due to the fact that different scanners might have a different file structure and/or file format for the data, it may be necessary to adjust the submission interface a little bit for your needs. It would also be possible to adjust the submission interface in other ways, for instance if you have a file format that has information about the experiment. In this case it should be possible to import this information to the submission interface, thus simplifying the submission procedure a lot.

Please contact us about this matter so we can make the submission as easy as possible for you. The email address is ng-support@pdc.kth.se.

Requirements

The submission interface requires that you have a Java runtime environment installed on your computer. We only support Unix/Linux operating systems at the moment. If you want to run the submission interface under Windows, please contact us. You need at least version 1.2 of Java to run this program, or version 1.1.6 or higher if you got the Swing classes. The latest version of Java can be downloaded from www.javasoft.com.

Downloading

The submission interface can be downloaded here: si.jar

Installation

Installing the submission interface is simple. Store the downloaded jar-archive in a place of your choice. To run the program, simply type

    java -cp /usr/local/lib/si.jar Submission

if you have stored si.jar in /usr/local/lib/. With an older version of Java you should write

    Java -classpath /usr/local/lib/si.jar:$CLASSPATH Submission

instead, where $CLASSPATH is an environmental variable which points to all Java classes included the Swing classes. An example of $CLASSPATH might be

    /usr/local/jdk1.1.8/lib/classes.zip:/usr/local/share/java/classes/jfc-1.1.1/swingall.jar

but depending on computer and operating system you will probably find the classes in other directories. You probably want to make a small script which starts the program for you and is in your search path. Here is an example of such a script:

    #!/bin/sh
    java -cp /usr/local/lib/si.jar Submission $1

Name the script to whatever you like. To make it runnable, write

    chmod 755 scriptname

and put it in your search path (e.g. /usr/local/bin/).

Installing new versions

When the project releases new version of the submission interface, they will all have the same filename; si.jar. The only thing you need to do is to replace the old file with the new one. It is not necessary to change the execution script since the name is the same. This way, the installation procedure will be even more simple when installing new versions; it is just to replace the old file and run.
