DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Prof. RIMOLDI\, A. (PAVIA UNIVERSITY & INFN)\nThe si
 mulation for the ATLAS experiment is presently operational in a full OO\ne
 nvironment and it is presented here in terms of successful solutions to pr
 oblems\ndealing with application in a wide community using a common framew
 ork. The ATLAS\nexperiment is the perfect scenario where to test all appli
 cations able to satisfy the\ndifferent needs of a big community. Following
  a well stated strategy of transition\nfrom the GEANT3 to the GEANT4-based
  simulation\, a good validation programme during\nthe last months confirme
 d the characteristics of reliability\, performance and \nrobustness of thi
 s new tool in comparison with the results of the previous\nsimulation. Gen
 eration\, simulation and digitization steps on different full sets of\nphy
 sics events were tested in terms of performance and robustness in comparis
 ons with\nthe same samples undergoing the old GEANT3-based simulation. The
  simulation program\nis simultaneously tested on all different testbeam se
 tups characterizing the R&D\nprogramme of all subsystems belonging to the 
 ATLAS detector with comparison to real\ndata in order to validate the phys
 ics content and the reliability in the detector\ndescription of each compo
 nent.\n\nhttp://indico.cern.ch/contributionDisplay.py?contribId=67&session
