Isn't there one main software framework for ILC detector simulation that I can use?
There are three (and soon-to-be four) separate software frameworks corresponding to each Each of the major detector concepts . TODO: What kind of common software packages can we establish and use effectively among all 4 groups? --JMuses a separate software framework, with LCIO providing interoperability.
What frameworks are available for ILC Detector Simulations?
There are three four differents toolchains that can be used, corresponding to the LDC, SiD, GLD, and GLD detectors"fourth detector" concepts. The software suites corresponding to the first two detectors can simulate all 3 of the detector concepts, so there is no strict division on which tools should be used for a certain detector study.

The ALCPG and SLAC use the SLIC Simulations Package (C++) with the org.lcsim for reconstruction and analysis using Java. This system also uses the JAS3 graphical analysis environment. Much of the functionality within org.lcsim comes from the FreeHep Java Library.slic

Which software tools are associated with GLD?
Finally, the ACFA group has a suite of softare based on the ROOT framework. Jupiter and satellites

Which software tools are associated with LDC?

What software is associated with the fourth concept?
I think the fourth The 4th concept is using ILCROOT, which is itself based on AliRoot.

The remainder of this FAQ focuses on the US/ALCPG/SLAC software suite based on SLIC and org.lcsim. There is also some basic discussion of Mokka and Marlin and CALICE software. I do not discuss the GLD or fourth 4th concept frameworks. --JM |
