Description
Commissioning of the ATLAS detector at the CERN Large Hadron Collider
(LHC) includes, as partially overlapping phases, subsystem standalone
work, integration of systems into the full detector, cosmics data taking,
single beam running and finally first collisions. These tasks require
services like DAQ with data recording to Tier0 and distributed data
management, databases, histogramming and event displays, data reconstruction
and analysis both online and offline. An important aspect is the early
interplay of the offline, high-level trigger, and online software versions
involved. This paper describes how the various ATLAS components are utilized
from now until LHC operation.
