Scope

The review is intended to assess the overall ability of the software to analyze the data at the time data taking begins. This was a goal that was largely considered to have been sought and achieved by the LHC experiments at CERN. This has not been done previously at JLab while commissioning a new experimental hall.

Original e-mails sent by Rolf and Eugene initially describing the scope can be found here:

Results of meetings involving Hall-D:


Brainstorming meeting on Jan. 26, 2012

  • This was an initiative by Rolf to try and ensure the halls are not needlessly duplicating effort when it comes to software development.
  • The initial meeting was summarized in an e-mail Rolf sent on Jan. 26, 2012.
  • Several sub-meetings with topics were suggested. The intent was to have

the sub-meetings and then meet again as a group to discuss the results.

Hall-D Preparations

Specific plans for Hall-D's preparations for the review are gathered in this section.

Planning Meetings

Schedules and Resources

Here are links to some pages dedicated to schedules and resource lists put together for the review.


Presentations

Here are links to the presentations and documents being prepared for the review. The format was described in an email sent out on April 13th,2012.

Hall-D

Material

From 2011 mini-Review

In Spring of 2011 an internal software review was conducted partially as preparation for the external review planned in 2012. Below are links to some of the relevant material from that review.

From 6GeV BIA Schedule

The 6GeV BIA (Baseline Improvement Schedule) was made to allow development on certain projects that while critical to 12GeV, could be used by the 6GeV program were it to continue and the upgrade never happen. Thus, these items were to be paid for by the 6GeV operations budget and not out of the 12GeV project budget.

The Offline Computing schedule was placed in the BIA and the intention was to track it there. At some point (2009?) the BIA tracking was dropped and the Offline Computing has not maintained tracking of it since. It does, however, serve as the most recent detailed project plan for the offline computing. The most recent version (extracted by Phil Kessler on Jan. 17, 2012) can be found here:

BIA_Last_Baseline_with_Offline_Computing_17_January_12_PMK.pdf

From 12GeV Project Schedule

The 12 GeV Project schedule contains only the Online Computing activities. Primarily DAQ system and Control Systems software. There is some overlap between the offline and online and where the reviewers will draw the boundary. Nonetheless, a recent (Oct. 2011) extraction of the Computing part of the project schedule can be found here:

Subject: Re: 12 GeV Software review planning - electronic

Dear all,

    Apologies for the delay, but here a few attachments with:
1) charge and agenda for an internal BNL Atlas review in December of
2006, that Chip chaired and had a fairly large emphasis upon software and computing, as opposed to construction.
2) for completeness, the document on what to expect/prepare for a
review, from the earlier meeting.
3) the research management plan for the SBS.

    Also, FYI here a few sites with presentations/further info that
may be useful, per Chip:
a) a link to a software talk from a DOE review
http://www.bnl.gov/npp/docs/doehep07/raja_BNL-DOE.pdf
with a pretty broad scope, and lots of details.  Should be useful.

b) a DOE talk of 1 1/2 years old:
http://science.energy.gov/~/media/hep/pdf/files/pdfs/lhcops_hepap_1.pdf

c) the annual review report from 2009 for US LHC:
http://gate.hep.anl.gov/lprice/USLHC_Operations_2009-final.doc
(where Operations includes software and computing).

                Best regards,    Rolf
