38th Software Week

5 Oct 2009, 09:00 → 9 Oct 2009, 18:00 Europe/Zurich

CERN

Items for discussion: --- monitoring, data quality --- configurables, experiences, recommendations,what we learned, what should be improved, recommendations how to use configurables --- condition tags, naming conventions --- LHCb point of view concerning virtualization and parallel computing

Monday 5 October

Tutorials: basic LHCb Software environment

This session is intended for people new to the LHCb software environment, but may be interesting also to people wishing to better understand the software environment and Gaudi architecture

Pre-requisites for the hands-on sessions are:
- A laptop registered for access to the CERN network (preferably both the fixed and wireless MAC addresses should be registered)
- A computer account on lxplus, in the LHCb group (Z5)
- A valid grid certificate is also recommended (instructions)

If you intend to participate, please send a mail to marco.cattaneo@cern.ch so we get an idea of numbers.
