MEDEA: Automated Measure and on-line Analysis in Astronomy and   Astrophysics for Very Large Vision Machine
  MEDEA is a software architecture to detect luminosity variations connected with the discovery of new planet outside the Solar System. Taking into account the enormous number of stars to monitor for our aim traditional approaches are very demanding in terms of computing time; here, the implementation of an automatic vision and decision system, which allows to perform an on-line discrimination of possible events by using two levels of trigger and a quasi-on-line data analysis, is presented. MEDEA becomes very profitable when dealing with large or deep surveys and provides to obtain soon results with its powerful data analysis tools.
