Description
The CMS Geant4-based Simulation Framework, Mantis, is a specialization of the COBRA
framework, which implements the CMS OO architecture. Mantis, which is the basis for
the CMS-specific simulation program OSCAR, provides the infrastructure for the
selection, configuration and tuning of all essential simulation elements: geometry
construction, sensitive detector and magnetic field management, event generation and
Monte Carlo truth, physics, particle propagation and tracking, run and event
management, and user monitoring actions.
The experimental setup is built by Mantis using the COBRA Detector Description
Database, DDD, which allows transparent instantiation of any layout (full or partial
CMS simulation, test beam setups etc).
Persistency, histogramming and other important services are available using the
standard COBRA infrastructure and are transparent to user applications.
