1. GLAST Beamtest 2006 Pisa R.Dubois1/3 Offline Possibilities for Ancillary Data Handling

2. GLAST Beamtest 2006 Pisa R.Dubois2/3 Raw Data 1.Separate DAQ streams Would both streams be sent off together via FastCopy or merged beforehand? If - Merge ancillary data into LDF between spills? As “user contribution”? Could consider Gaudi algs to reconstruct beamline elements with simple calibrations Would involve the different detector types and calibrations – would need consulting from Joanne for the calibrations definitions if we want them time dependent Add in to svac tuple; add parallel beamtest digi tree? Else - Separate app to reconstruct beamline elements What is the form of the raw data? Would be nice if this was not reconstructed with a PAW macro! Code should be in cvs for all to see and use Presumably output would be form of Root tree/ntuple How to synch data: Want same run/event number Who verifies the synch? Ric has ideas for slaved scalars to track synch Output Root data files – ntuple for summary info Separate BT tuple or additions to svac? Input to data server to allow easy association with merit, svac/beamtest

3. GLAST Beamtest 2006 Pisa R.Dubois3/3 Near Real Time LATTE multicasts events –would/could LATTE wait until it gets the ancillary data into LDF before sending the event to Gleam listener? –could consider socket connection to Gleam to sample events for digi+engUnits & FRED viewing –Would need to develop this for Gleam Would have other uses too – eg Gleam server pool for event display, etc –See Leon’s talk for throughput in this mode Otherwise run Gleam after the end of run –For quicker turnaround on digi + engUnits
