DAQ -1 Project
- (Pre)Prototype of the final ATLAS DAQ system
- Two major components:
- Dataflow: fast data transport (specific solution to a specific problem)
- Back end: slow support software (general solution to general problem)
- Basic requirements: distributed, partitionable, configurable by databases
Summary so far
- It exists and was tested on a small system in June/July
- Dataflow software not currently suitable for use in a smaller
scale environment such as ROD crates
- Back end software components are now distributed on CDROM
Impressions of Back end software
- Its a prototype: rough edges, evolving, incomplete
- It consists of many components, some quite complex
- On the whole it is well documented
- We can use it
