Priorities

Software

Major Software Components and Tools

  • art, a ROOT-based suite of tools, libraries, and applications for processing detector events.
  • LArSoft, a art-based framework for simulating liquid argon drift detectors. As of Jan 24, 2014, LArSoft transitioned from svn/SRT to git/mrb/ups.

New Tools


Infrastructure

FNAL

BNL

Open Science Grid

LBNE enjoys the support of the Open Science Grid (OSG) Consortium and has a Virtual Organization (VO) status with the Consortium. OSG is an important component of the national Grid Computing infrastructure in the US and it facilitates access to High-Throughput Computing facilities for many research institutions and collaborations. To illustrate this, here is a link to the Gratia monitoring tool which shows Grid resource utilization.
