Issues

The following issues needing infrastruture work were identified at the workshop:

Reconstruction

  • PFA "template" into which different (clustering etc) algorithms can be inserted
  • Complete finding/fitting package
  • Ability to reconstruct event particle by particle
  • Cluster finding should be steered on physics quantities (interaction lengths, etc)
  • Track seeded cluster finding.

LCIO

  • Some outstanding issues which need discussion
    • Add CellID to TrackerHit
    • Entry/Exit point for SimTrackerHit

Examples

  • Need example of how to add new items to WIRED (WWWLCSIM-8@jira)
  • Need more advanced examples

org.lcsim Infrastructure

  • Drivers etc (lcsim-103@jira)
    • Should be possible to add a subdriver without causing to be explicitly called.
    • Driver should provide standard way to control input/output collections
    • Logging, should be improved.
      • Improve filter example
  • Steering file for offline use (adopt Marlin scheme?)
  • Ability to save MCParticle with cheater clusters
  • Ability to sort on columns in LCIO Event Browser (lcsim-34@jira)
  • Event Overlays
  • Hit neighbour calculation in corners, detector overlap regions
  • Improve sampling fraction handling in calorimeter
  • Ability to integrate Marlin/lcsim processors.
  • DigiSim should produce SimCalorimeterHits?
  • Add a basic set of event object in org.lcsim.event.basic

Geometry

  • Should add support for flags (EM,HAD,Digital,Analog etc) for sub-detectors. (gc-34@jira)
  • Access to properies of materials. Calculation of dE/dx. (GC-66@jira)
    • Maybe should add dE/dx calculation to materials subsystem
  • More realistic LDC geometry description (octagonal calorimeter)

WIRED

  • Cuts (wired-71@bugs)
  • should be able to save user preferences e.g collection visibility (wired-477@bugs)
  • Wired performance with large number of (e.g.) TPCHits
  • Need an easy way to turn off end-cap hits.

Miscellaneous

  • No labels
