# 200414: Software Meeting

Agenda: https://indico.cern.ch/event/909144/

Connected: Andre, Matthias, Marko, Placido, Ulrike, Valentin, Philipp,

## Long lived particles

* Update with ctau=6.9mm samples
* Fix for "reconstructable" definition, select with nHits>=3 instead of >=0
    * Should use MCParticle hits instead of hits of reconstructed tracks

* PR: need to have a look at the background
    * EB: Already some look by Cecilia
    * US: Get number of background events to be able to optimise selection, e.g. against significance
    * PR See last presentation by Emilia

* US: Duplicates for low_pt pion tracks, some way to reduce them?
    * Compare track parameters to reduce duplicates

## MC Generators

## Simulation

## Reconstruction

### Tracking

### Particle Flow

* MW: discussed what goes into the data file, and use Matthias' settings as defaults as more general
    * Default Plots: JE Response, JE Resolution, Polar and Azimuthal angle resolution
    * Optional Plots: MET, Di_Jet mass resolution plots
* Need to align use of histogram, could be finished this week

## Infrastructure

* Need to configure LCG_97 based installation tarball to CVMFS
* Could not use cvmfs based installation
* /cvmfs/clicdp.cern.ch/software/LCG/97/x86_64-centos7-gcc8-opt/
    * Same as 97 minus DD4hep and LCIO
    * Can be also in SFT cvmfs? Valentin to ask Gerri
* TODO: remove also gaudi from there
* TODO: layered view: select packages (Geant4, ROOT,...), let it create the links

## iLCDirac
* New version coming ASAP
    * DiracOS v1r11

## key4hep

* Base on Gaudi branch
    * https://gitlab.cern.ch/gaudi/Gaudi/-/merge_requests/986
    * https://gitlab.cern.ch/clemenci/Gaudi/-/tree/cmake-modernisation
    * dev3 or dev4 lcg builds
    * Once we have an idea, deploy to key4hep

### podio/edm4hep/core/nightlies

* Key4hep builds: added spack mirror over http
* cvmfs publisher as gitlab runner?
    * Depends who owns the publisher
* tagging scripts: https://github.com/iLCSoft/iLCInstall
    * scripts/ilcsofttagger.py

### MarlinWrapper

* Marlinprocessor is running,
    * but segmentation fault at the end of Gaudi under investigation
    * pointing at libMarlin.so
