# 201027: Software Meeting
Agenda: https://indico.cern.ch/event/969604/
Connected: Andre, Placido, Valentin, Ulrike,
Present:
Apologies:
## MC Generators
* Some issue with using integrated processes, still takes long time when using the files
* Solution proposed by Whizard authors: simulate one event to trigger additional calculations by Whizard for the resonance history
* Works locally, runs much faster.
* Issues with running on the grid: still take too long, or use too much memory, or both, for 4q2l sample
* 2q4l samples running fine, 3% failure rate (acceptable)
* Check with VTune (or prmon) for looking at memory usage
* VTune: `source /cvmfs/projects.cern.ch/intelsw/psxe/linux/all-setup.sh`
* Prmon: https://github.com/HSF/prmon
* SystemMonitor app
* More sindarin files https://gitlab.cern.ch/CLICdp/DetectorSoftware/clic-whizard2-settings
## Simulation
* Issue with simulation of muons with fixed pT?
* observed different duplicate vs phi using different muon simulation runs
* Maybe different input (not pt, but energy)?
* Different Theta range, 0-90 degrees before, 0-180 degrees now
## Reconstruction
### Tracking
### Particle Flow
### Digitizer
### Event Display
### FlavourTagging
### Long-Lived Particle
### dE/dX
### LCGeo Test
## Infrastructure
## iLCDirac
* New version coming ASAP
* DiracOS v1r11 tested
* Calice moving from LCG FileCatalog to DFC, keep v6r22 with lcg bundles, because those contain LFC bindings still
## key4hep
### CI
* https://cern.service-now.com/service-portal?id=ticket&table=u_request_fulfillment&n=RQF1650416
* iLCSoft deployment: https://gitlab.cern.ch/CLICdp/SoftwareConfigurations/iLCSoft
* Nightly build
* Working on incremental builds and deployments
* Will be controlled from gitlab
* https://gitlab.cern.ch/key4hep/k4-deploy
* spack test -> recursion error
* https://github.com/key4hep/k4-spack/issues/89
* Integrate with CDash, post updated packages
#### Environment Script
* Overwrite PATH etc.?
* lcg stack prepend
* Module way is slow
* `spack environment`, like the key4hep-stack bundle package
* adapt the CVMFS publisher to create the script
#### View
* WIP, also Thomas Madlener looking into it
### k4-spack
* updated key4hep-stack bundle package
* PR: https://github.com/key4hep/k4-spack/pulls
### LCFIPlus inside Gaudi
* Valentin looking into it because of interest from FCC side
### podio
### EDM4hep
* builds against dev3 not working
* TODO: Andre: try dev3 ddsim
* TODO: dev3 builds for DD4hep disappeared
### k4FWCore
* k4run
* Done
### k4GMPWrapper (renamed)
* addded further test for converter
* Implement constant and "include" features used in Marlin XML
* TODO: rename the package
#### LCIO <-> EDM4hep conversions
* Conversion service from Gaudi
* under investigation by Valentin
* At the moment only used for geometry conversion
* How to do this most generically?
* How to tell which collections to import and export for given wrapper processor?
*
### spack
* heppdt is "back"
* python version to be made explicit
* Added to packages.yaml
* bug in concretizer that the python versions clash?
* Open issue for spack
* how to define stack releases?
* yaml file
* directly in the package.py, or via import therer
### Gaudi
* cmake-modernization PR moving forward: https://gitlab.cern.ch/gaudi/Gaudi/-/merge_requests/986#note_3895786
* a bit of discussion there: this means lots of changes for downstream code
* tried it out with k4fwcore already: https://github.com/vvolkl/K4FWCore/tree/cmake-modernization
- working so far, but no K4FWCoreConfig.cmake generated! (policy is for users to generate their own )

## FCCee Detector Model
* Some drivers used from lcgeo moving to FCC or better DD4hep repository
## SCT Integration
* Issue with compiling DDG4 on novosibirsk cluster
* Added: DDRec DDDetectors UtilityApps
* Add TPC xml as "Aurora" Package
## Snowmass
## AOB
