The org.lcsim reconstruction and analysis suite is written in Java and includes the following major components:
- Standard geometry system. Both org.lcsim and SLIC work with a common high level "compact detector description" which makes it easy to adjust detector parameters and ensure consistency between the simulated and reconstructed data.
- Full support for LCIO standards for input and output.
- Fast "parameterized" monte-carlo to support rapid development of analysis algorithms
- Full reconstruction infrastructure into which
, including the WIRED event display and JAS3 data analysis system
- including digitization, track finding and reconstruction, cluster finding and PFA analysis framework.
- Analysis tools including jet finding and event shape analysis, and histograming and fitting based on the AIDA library.
- Full event-display based on WIRED integrated with the geometry system.
The org.lcsim reconstruction framework can be run standalone, or integrated with the JAS3 interactive data analysis system. The use of Java for the org.lcsim suite greatly simplified the task of supporting multiple target operating systems, and makes it possible to exploit the superb modern development environments which have been developed in the last decadeBoth org.lcsim and SLIC work with a common high level "compact detector description" which makes it easy to adjust detector parameters and ensure consistency between the simulated and reconstructed data.
These tools were designed to be easy to use and set up so that barrier barriers for users to get involved with the detector simulation effort are low. For several workshops and conferences in the past we have been able to create CDs containing everything a new user needs to get started with these tools, including install kits for a variety of operating systems, documentation and event samples.
