The ATLAS High Level Trigger's (HLT) primary function of event selection will be accomplished with a Level-2 trigger farm and an filter (EF) farm, both running software components developed in the offline reconstruction framework. While this approach provides unified framework for selection, it poses strict requirements on critical trigger. A decision must typically within 10 ms multiple processing concurrent threads. To address these constraints, prototypes have been that incorporate...
Following rigorous software design and analysis methods, an object-based architecture has been developed to derive the second- third-level trigger decisions for future ATLAS detector at LHC. The functional components within this system responsible generating elements of are algorithms running architecture. Relevant aspects reviewed along with concrete examples specific their performance in "vertical" slices various physics selection strategies.
The ATLAS trigger reduces the rate of interesting events to be recorded for off-line analysis in three successive levels from 40 MHz /spl sim/100 kHz, sim/2 kHz and sim/200 Hz. high level triggers data acquisition system are designed profit commodity computing networking components achieve required performance. In this paper, we discuss flow aspects design second (LVL2) present results performance measurements.
The Event Filter (EF) selection stage is a fundamental component of the ATLAS Trigger and Data Acquisition architecture. Its primary function reduction data flow rate to values acceptable by mass storage operations subsequent offline reconstruction analysis steps. computing instrument EF organized as set independent subfarms, each connected one output Builder (EB) switch fabric. Each subfarm comprises number processors analyzing several complete events in parallel. This paper describes...

During the runtime of any experiment, a central monitoring system that detects problems as soon they appear has an essential role. In large like ATLAS, online data acquisition is distributed across nodes farms, each them running several processes analyse fraction events. this architecture, it necessary to have process collects all from different nodes, produces full statistics histograms and analyses them. paper we present design such system, called gatherer. It allows collect object,...
To cope with the 40 MHz event production rate of LHC, trigger ATLAS experiment selects events in three sequential steps increasing complexity and accuracy whose final results are close to offline reconstruction.
