March 23-24 2005 SLAC

Agenda:

Note, this is intended to be a workshop, so this agenda deliberately has plenty of time left open for discussion and since it is only a small group we can move things around as necessary. I have loosely reserved day 1 for pipeline and day 2 for dataserver, but we can shift things around based on how much we have to discuss on various topics.

  • Introduction - Tony
  • Existing Pipeline Review
    • Backend - Schema, Scheduler, FrontEnd requests - Dan
    • Frontend (PDF), Frontend (PowerPoint) - Overview, Architecture and Status - Matt
