\section{Integration Time}
The second factor of the time of observation is the integration time. This is the time that we spend on each pointing in the mosaic. A restriction on this is that there must be enough pointings to cover the area that we wish to cover. So, our image which is ~ 2' to a side requires ~ 30 pointings. Therefore,
Total_time >= 30 Integration time
The suggested time for real observations is \href{http://casaguides.nrao.edu/index.php?title=Simulation_Guide_for_New_Users_(CASA_3.4)}{10s}. In general, shorter integrations are better but add overhead (read out, changing pointing) to the time required.
We shall investigate the difference between 10 and 30 pointings.
