Software R&D Working Meeting Minutes

2021-11-17

Apologies: Erica

Turnkey Software Stack

  • EDM4hep and PODIO

    • Now has Subsets, pointer to other objects
    • Slightly extensible data model now
    • RNTuple reader!
    • std::variant to capture different hit types (C++17 standard)
  • Generators in Key4hep (cf. ECFA discussion) - build time decisions? Genser relations?

    • Try to provide cannonical examples!
    • Generators are close to leaf nodes, but also a bit intertwined
      • Can often be run stand-alone, then simulation in a different job
    • We get help from Dimitri for this
  • CLUE integration in good shape

  • ACTS integration beginning

  • Doctest for documentation

  • Andi: OpenDataDetector

    • tracker is frozen (it’s TrackML with addons, not a Phase II tracker (not to eta=4)), might need some digitization help
      • no drift chamber
    • try to make the detector ACTS independent, which is important for portability
    • try to complete the detector - calorimeter and muon system
  • Anna:

    • yes, removing ACTS dependancy would be useful
    • adapting FCC-hh calo system, HGCAL interest?
  • Valentin:

    • Will discuss with the FCC calorimetery group about adding an FCC (LAr?) calo to the ODD
There are minutes attached to this event. Show them.
