Overview

This is a special one-topic meeting whose goal is to try to understand the event size given the recent simulation results on occupancies, especially in the FDC. Note that the 2002 Hall D design document lists a 4kB average event size, although it is possible that the FDC itself may take 4kB (or even more). The average event size affects the design of the DAQ system in a number of ways, so this needs to be understood sooner rather than later. Fortunately the DAQ architecture is highly scalable, so accomodating higher event sizes and event rates is not a big problem.

The goal of this meeting is to:

  1. Understand what we know and do not know about event size, occupancies, etc.
  2. Devise a plan to learn what we need to learn
