ALMA interferometric data preprocessing for image synthesis

With the operation of the ALMA radio-interferometric observatory, a large amount of preprocessing will be required. The ALMA instrument observatory has already begun operations with reduced capabilities, and will reach completion by 2013, recording several GB per day in Fourier space radio signals over 60 antennas, in a 16 km wide surface.
