After one full year of validation on collider data, and in preparation for the higher-precision and higher-statistics needs of the coming years, time is ripe for a topical workshop to assess the status of LHC detector simulations, bringing together the current experience of the users from the experiments' physics performance groups, and the developers of the major simulation codes
More details on the proposed format and plan are given in the attached document.
Goals:
a- Review what was learned from the comparison of collisions' data and simulations: what worked, what didn't work and got fixed (how), and what still needs to be improved
b- Identify benchmarks for the needed improvements, motivated by specific physics performance goals
Review requirements by the experiments for improvements on the technical side: CPU performance, architectural issues, fast simulations, handling of pileup, etc..
Goal: review the plans for future developments, also in view of the needs presented by the experiments in Session 2
Discuss possible ways to monitor progress in this area, and to steer some immediate concrete work. Possible proposals:
