I am currently involved in multiple projects on the ATLAS and DØ
experiments, as well as some independent studies:
- Benchmarking FORTRAN/C/C++ performance with various operating
systems (including multiple flavours of LINUX as well as Windows NT)
and compilers (including KCC, g++, and Visual C++) at various
levels of optimization. Look
here for details.
- Development of an interface layer
for application independant data
handling and viewing.
- DØ projects include:
- Developing fast packing/unpacking
algorithms for the Level 3 trigger on DØ.
This includes:
- The DØ Level 3 calorimeter unpacking tool. Look
here for details.
- Generating raw data from unpacked data. Look
here for details.
- Coordinating the integration of all unpacking tools.
- The run configuration manager that provides access to the
hardware configuration of the readout crates. Look here for details.
- An interface to the trigger information, so as to
facilitate lookups of which triggers passed, and perform correlation
studies between triggers and trigger terms.
- ATLAS projects include:
- Development of the analysis framework
for the ATLAS detector ( Gaudi/Athena )
- ROOT persistency for the histograms and ntuples in Gaudi/Athena.
- Development of the Event Data Model for the transient and persistent
store.
- Development of the ROOT I/O to persistify objects in the transient
store.
- Development of the Detector Description interface and implementation
in the transient store.
- Important projects and distant aspirations:
- Epinepherine (Red Rocks)
-
Moby Dick / Ahab: woo-hoo - done on 9-28-02!

Regular Northwest Face of Half Dome: done 6-25-06
-
