Agenda¶

• Release status
  • Current release = 0.9.1
    • Memory leak fixes #1489
    • Added GEANT fine-grained production threshold
    • Geometry - updates, ckov
    • TOF Calibrations by-run
    • KL Calibrations to DB
    • KL MC tuning
  • Targets for future release:
    • EMR -- digitization
    • EMR -- reconstruction
    • Trigger MC
    • DAQ maps to DB #1375 (needs #994)

• Schedule(All): 240914_Software_and_Computing.ods

• Detectors
  • Detector integration (Durga Rajaram)
  • Tracker (Adam Dobbs)
    • Space-point, track-finding efficiency studies partly blocked by lack of trigger #1182
    • ACTION: flag low pt for downstream reconstruction
    • ACTION: ADC smearing, Cosmic data -- need input from David Adey
    • ACTION: Meeting when MC noise algorithm design (CH) is in place.
    • ACTION: A.Dobbs to check with Santos on sched updates and pending issues
  • TOF (Durga Rajaram)
  • EMR (Francois Drielsma)
    • MC #1033
    • ACTION: Francois to push his code to lp
    • does the "extra events" from EMR affect MC trigger formation?
      • Communication from François: code is in private branch on lp, MC digitizer v1 is complete, Reconstruction being worked on
  • KL (Mariyan Bogomilov)
    • STANDING: MC validation, optimization, tuning, #1411
  • RealData (Yordan Karadzhov)
    • DAQ channel maps to DB (Rajaram) #1375, blocked by #994
  • Ckov (Drews/Winter/Rajaram)
  • Global Recon (Jan Greis/Celeste Pidcott)
    • ACTION: Need uncertainties from detector reconstructions. Uncertainties on track points, momenta; Uncertainties on tof time. How? Also will need datastructure modifications once we understand how to get the uncertainties
  • Tracking (Greis)
  • PID (Pidcott)
  • Monte Carlo trigger (Ryan Bayes) #1182
    • ACTION: DR restructure TOF Digi and incorporate MapCppTrigger
• Infrastructure
  • Geometry/MC (Stefania Ricciardi/Ryan Bayes)
    • ACTION: Tracker geometry -- He windows are in, but waiting for expert guidance on actual position
    • ACTION: Survey nest positions from detectors -- should be handled via CDB table. Specification needed for Janusz to implement this

• Speed improvements (Bayes)
  • see 21 July Geometry meeting

• MC Beam
  • Standing: There is a request to have G4BL decks in the CDB. JN will handle the interface code
• GRID and Batch Production (Chris Rogers/Janusz Martyniak)
  • Try grid running again? #1489
• Code deployment (All)
• Documentation
• Data Structure

• Online
  • Online data quality (Chris Rogers)
    • Have prototype GUI and prototype ROOT-based document DB to replace maus-web-app and django #1312
  • Software Workshop (CM 40)
    • Please vote in the Doodle poll
  • Software On Call (Durga Rajaram)
    • http://micewww.pp.rl.ac.uk/projects/maus/wiki/Software_on-call (SOC wiki)

• AOB
• Date of next meeting October 8 2014
