- The JLab Users Group will conduct a survey all users on their use and experience with scientific computing at the lab. This should happen in a few weeks.
Review of minutes from the last meeting
We reviewed the ??? minutes from the June 14th meeting.
- We discussed profiling our reconstruction code.
- We will try to do this for every tagged release.
- Tentatively we will try to use oprofile. Richard, David, and Mark will meet to discuss implementation.
- Richard presented a proposal for the DST description. There were a number of discussion on the smaller DST details, but it was agreed that this was a very good start.
- Curtis started the discussion on the next data challenge. A request was made to send ideas to Curtis on what we hope to do with this and he would compile it into a document. The preliminary draft of this document can be found in docDb as GlueX-doc-2031.
DST Format
Richard presented an [??? HDDM template] describing our current choice for a DST format. We went through it line by line and some suggestions were offered. Richard will consult with Paul and implement the changes.
New Action Items
- Implement profiling on tagged releases. -> Richard, David, Mark
- Distributed a revised HDDM template for the DST -> Richard, Paul
