The group plays a major role in the operation of the Pixel detector, building on SLAC's long experience in silicon detector technology. We are also very involved in the triggers and data-aquisition (TDAQ) system, working on the TDAQ software and infrastructure, as well as high-level triggers and online beam spot. And we contribute to the simulation software, with expertise in GEANT4 modeling. SLAC is also proposing major roles in several projects that will address the planned ATLAS upgrades, including the pixel B-Layer Insertion upgrade and TDAQ upgrades based on cutting-edge serial I/O + FPGA technology.
