    • Option to build gcc 4.9.3 as a third party
    • SciFi recon able to distinguish field on or off separately in each spectrometer
    • TRefArray overflow bug fixed
    • SciFi now has script to pull down configuration data from CDB (run manually, like geometry)
  • Targets for future release:
    • Trigger MC
    • Fix memory leaks
    • Tracker -- Kalman updates
    • Updated tracker noise
    • execute_against_data.py should be always make a tarball

Schedule

    • ACTION: Add data_analyzable flag for each detector (Detector software heads) #1585
  • Tracker (P. Kyberd)
    • Observe that tracks when visualised do not appear to line up between trackers, in both position and slope
    • MC studies of effect of 1T field on tracker performance (P. Kyberd, Analysis Group)
    • Space-point, track-finding efficiency studies partly blocked by lack of trigger #1182

  • EMR (F. Drielsma)
  • KL (M. Bogomilov)
  • CKOV (A. Liu, D. Rajaram)
    • Calibration
    • Validate CKOV MC against data

Global Reconstruction

  • Tracking (J. Greis)
  • PID (C. Pidcott)
  • Detector output
    • Get detector output in global coordinate system (C. Heidt, C. Hunt), see #1631
  • ACTION: Detectors to provide uncertainties from reconstructions on: positions; momenta; tof time (A. Dobbs)
  • ACTION: Implement dE/dx in Runge-Kutta (J. Gries)

Monte Carlo

  • Monte Carlo trigger (D. Rajaram) #1182

Online Reconstruction

Batch Offline Reconstruction

  • GRID running 1.0.0
    • Enable MC GRID running again #1739
    • execute_against_data.py to always produce tarball Is this still relevant?

Infrastructure

  • ACTION Need C++ Reducer example (C. Rogers)
  • ACTION Fix geometry test which randomly produces large SOAP error (R. Bayes)
  • ACTION Fix problems when setting header_and_footer_mode to "dont_append" (C. Rogers, C. Pidcott)

Performance

  • Speed improvements
    • Fix memory leaks - preventing GRID running (A. Dobbs, D. Rajaram, C. Rogers)
  • Beam generation excessive resource usage
    • Query analysis group requirements (in particular how many G4BL beams we need)

Release Status

  • MAUS 1.1.1 to be released as soon as D. Rajaram provides a final TOF update and CKOV onrec bug fix merged in

Schedule

  • Updated schedule now ready to go to Alan Grant

Detectors

  • KL
  • Ckov
  • EMR
  • Tracker
    • R. Bayes is also seeing odd tracker track locations, even with updated CDB geometry
  • TOF

Global Reconstruction

  • Still waiting on working C++ reducer example
  • RK dE/dx almost done

Monte Carlo

Geometry

  • KL CDB geometry needs to be checked over by M. Bogomilov, A. Dobbs to email him
  • SciFi CDB geometry looks good but should be checked by tracker folk running through MAUS
  • Last TOF update to go in, issue #1752

Online Reconstruction

  • TOF reducer currently using up 100% of CPU, D. Rajaram investigating
  • New OnRec framework has a few glitches, C. Rogers job
  • CKOV plots bug fixed in control room branch, A. Lui to provide A. Dobbs with a branch to merge into merge branch

Batch Offline Reconstruction

  • Almost there with enabling GRID MC running again, should hopefully be back before CM (need scifi and KL geometry verfied, and last TOF geometry update)
  • Batch offline recon currently being performed on onrec03, works smoothly but not yet fully automated
  • New dedicated offline recon machine on the way

Infrastructure

  • Replace TRefArray with with std::vector<TRef> (probably encapsulated in some class) to enable multi-threading (A. Dobbs)
