Agenda¶
Release status¶
- Current release = 0.9.4
- Targets for release 0.9.5:
- Remove extra EMR recon events
- Geometry GDML parser for speedup
- Targets for future release:
- Trigger MC
- Tracker -- pat rec and kalman updates
- Tracker unpacking and digitisation fix
Schedule¶
- 2015-03-25_Software_and_Computing.ods
- ACTION: Circulate schedule to group managers to get updated dates before next time (A. Dobbs)
Detectors¶
- Detector integration (D. Rajaram)
- Reconstruction quality flags (A. Dobbs to make requests to detector groups)
- Tracker (P. Kyberd)
- Space-point, track-finding efficiency studies partly blocked by lack of trigger #1182
- ACTION: Tracker unpacking and digitisation fix (E. Overton, A. Dobbs)
- ACTION: Flag low pt for downstream tracker reconstruction (A. Dobbs) Done in personal dev branch, needs testing before merge
- ACTION: Present noise implementation to group (C. Heidt)
- ACTION: Optimize momentum residuals for final tracks (C. Hunt)
- TOF (D. Rajaram)
- Restructure TOF MC Digitizer - part of trigger MC (D. Rajaram)
- EMR (F. Drielsma)
- KL (M. Bogomilov)
- STANDING: MC validation, optimization, tuning, #1411
- CKOV (Drews, Winter, D. Rajaram)
- Monte Carlo trigger (D. Rajaram) #1182
- ACTION: Restructure TOF Digitisation and incorporate MapCppTrigger (D. Rajaram)
Global Reconstruction¶
- Tracking (J. Greis)
- PID (C. Pidcott)
- Detector output
- ACTION: Get detector output in global coordinate system (C. Heidt, C. Hunt)
- See #1631
- ACTION: Need uncertainties from detector reconstructions: on poitions, momenta, tof time (A. Dobbs)
- Will also need data structure modifications once we understand how to get the uncertainties
- ACTION: Get detector output in global coordinate system (C. Heidt, C. Hunt)
Unpacking¶
ACTION Fix unpacking error linking against latest version of DATEDone (Y. Karadzhov, A. Dobbs, D. Rajaram)- Need to roll out SL6 to Jenkins nodes (P. Franchini)
- Configure to run with either Step I or Step IV unpacker depending on environment flag, see #1633.
- Need to configure a Jenkins build to regularly check Step I data once we move to the Step IV unpacker as default
- ACTION Fix tracker unpacking and digitisation (E. Overton, A. Dobbs)
- DAQ channel maps to DB (D. Rajaram) #1375, blocked by #994
Infrastructure¶
- Geometry/MC (S. Ricciardi, R. Bayes)
- Speed improvements (R. Bayes)
- Monte Carlo
- ACTION: Upload script feature (R. Bayes)
- GRID and Batch Production (C. Rogers, J. Martyniak)
- Try grid running again? #1489
- Running 0.9.4
- Try grid running again? #1489
- Code deployment
- Documentation
- Data Structure
Online¶
- Online reconstruction (A. Dobbs)
- Have prototype GUI and prototype ROOT-based document DB to replace maus-web-app and django #1312 (C. Rogers)
- Software On Call (A. Dobbs)
Performance¶
- Speed improvements
- No more passing JSON between modules, as string conversions are expensive, only use JSON for configuration data and input / output (A. Dobbs, D. Rajaram, C. Rogers)
- Extensive refactor work
- YK proposes parallelising MAUS with C++11 multi-threading, at the mapper level, see #1638 (A. Dobbs, D. Rajaram, C. Rogers, Y. Karadzhov)
- Extensive refactor work
- No more passing JSON between modules, as string conversions are expensive, only use JSON for configuration data and input / output (A. Dobbs, D. Rajaram, C. Rogers)
- Beam generation excessive resource usage
- Query analysis group requirements (in particular how many G4BL beams we need)
- Consider alternative upstream beam generation code
Documentation¶
- Create workbook (A. Dobbs)
AOB¶
- SOC cover needed for this weekend - R. Bayes to cover
- MAUS paper draft - developers please review and supply input where required launchpad

Detectors¶
- Detector Integration
- KL
- Ckov
- EMR
- Tracker
- The tracker unpacking / digitisation remains broken - critical issue for Step IV running
- TOF
Global Reconstruction¶
- Upstream tracks waiting on adding
Unpacking¶
- The new Step IV unpacker is now in MAUS 0.9.4 and successfully ran for OnRec on the weekend
Infrastructure¶
- Geometry
- MC
- G4BL
- GRID
- 0.9.4 is now deployed to the GRID, some errors, but these originate from bad runs
Online¶
- Release 0.9.4 is now deployed on onrec02 and onrec03, and ran successfully on the weekend
