Description

The ATLAS Experiment at the LHC is recording data from proton-proton collisions with 13 TeV
center-of-mass energy since spring 2015. The ATLAS collaboration has set up, updated
and optimized a fast physics monitoring framework (TADA) to automatically perform a broad
range of validation and to scan for signatures of new physics in the rapidly growing data.
TADA is designed to provide fast feedback in two or three days after the data are available.
The system can monitor a huge range of physics channels, offline data quality and physics
performance. TADA output is available in a, constantly updated, website accessible by the
whole collaboration. Hints of potentially interesting physics signals obtained this way are
followed up by the physics groups. The poster will report about the technical aspects of
TADA: the software structure to obtain the input TAG files, the framework workflow and
structure, the webpage and its implementation.
