Notes from local software meeting on 8 July 2005
Present: Rich, Bob, Bryan, Ryan, Kent, David L., Kirsten, Lisa, Hashemi, Paul, Tim
New things in software:
- Prompt analysis:
- Dithering slopes -- can use slopes from that run or can read
slopes from a file (averages over multiple runs). TODO:
Script to read slopes from multiple runs and average them [HASHEMI].
- Pair averages -- computation of dithering slopes uses
averages of left and right event data stored in pair tree
(enabling use of pair tree cuts).
- Multirun analysis:
- Averages results from several root files into one root file.
Will make Daily and Slug root files.
- TODO:
- Add dither corrections [BRYAN].
- Generate output [RYAN].
- Document [BRYAN].
Specific tasks to be done:
- Check out feedback [BRYAN].
- Check out beam modulation; mods for communications with
other halls [KENT, BOB].
- Commission cavities -- regression and dithering [LISA].
- Check phase advance [KENT].
- New blinding string [BRYAN,
LISA].
Responsibilities during run:
- Shifters: run prompt analysis (create Run root files)
- Weekly Analysis Coordinator (WAC): run multirun analysis (create
Daily, Slug root files); maintain runlist
- Compilation czar: Maintain software executables for gopan
directory -- check out and recompile when necessary to fix
serious bugs or to add necessary functionality (and not
otherwise)
TODO: Schedule WACs [RICH].
Compilation czar will be Bryan, backed up by Rich and Kent.
Next meeting: Meeting rooms are hard to come by due to 12 GeV
review. So: 10:00 am, Wed 13 July, ARC room
528.
