Comments and questions:
 
* pLAPPD ToF will be joined with the “normal” DAQ data stream
 
* The fiber tracker data, other spill-relevant data, and ckov data will go into the BI DB
 
* When and how to capture BI data from the DB? (Current thinking from J.Paley - purely offline, from CERN DB without own cache - any news on that?)
 
* When and how to merge it with the TPC and other data?
 
* Track reco and matching to the TPC - who will do it?

Mid-2017: add basic event-display-type (cf. channel vs time) of visual product before and after signal processing.

** prototypes such as "purity calculation" have been tested under p3s at CERN - thousands of jobs run
 
** new prototype of "purity calculator" under development by B.Baller
 
** the boundary between OM and DQM can be quite fluid, most software is portable
 
*** Generally a feature branch configured at CERN and a FCL file are all that's needed
 
*** ...although a simple wrapper provides additional convenience for managing I/O file names
 
** ROOT and art/LArSoft are common denominators
 
** Photon Detector (need more info)

= Latency =
 
* The way the F-FTS operates it naturally introduces a delay of a few minutes between inital transfer of the data to Tier-0 and placement of the data into a directory where it's available for * processing and further transfers
 
* This could be mitigated if DQM ran in EHN1 using a lightweight XRootD daemon with access to the online buffer, only accounting for ~1% if total bandwidth
 
* There are no easy solutions outside of that, so protoDUNE needs to decide whether a lag of a few minutes is acceptable

Overview

This is the main technical documentation page for the protoDUNE DQM. Historical notes on the design and planning have been moved to the page "DQM notes"

Documentation

Documents will be updated kept on GitHub, in the "documents" folder of the p3s repo: https://github.com/DUNE/p3s
