The ALICE Central Trigger Processor (CTP) is designed to select events with different features at rates which can be scaled down to satisfy physics requirements and restrictions imposed by the bandwidth of Data Acquisition system. The challenge of the ALICE trigger is to make optimum use of the component detectors which are busy for widely different periods following the valid trigger,...

The LHCb experiment is a spectrometer dedicated to the study of heavy flavor at the LHC. The rate of proton-proton collisions at the LHC is 15 MHz, of which only 5 kHz can be written to storage for offline analysis. For this reason the LHCb data acquisition system -- trigger -- plays a key role in selecting signal events and rejecting background. In contrast to previous experiments at hadron...

The ATLAS Experiment is a general purpose detector aimed at studying a wide range of processes and final states. To this end the ATLAS Detector and trigger must be able to detect and record a very large variety of objects and topologies. In particular events containing final state electrons, muons, photons and jets are used in analyses making precision Standard Model meausurements as well as...
