US ATLAS HL-LHC computing discussion

[Heather Gray <heather.gray AT cern.ch>]

Hi All,

It seems that tomorrow at 5 pm CERN is the only slot that works for everyone, so I've put together an agenda including vidyo connection details. You can find it here: https://indico.cern.ch/event/750700/. Live notes will also be linked to the agenda. Anyone who is interested is welcome to join!

Cheers

Heather

Dear All,

If you're interested in participating in the fast simulation working group (one of the working groups defined during last month's USATLAS/CSI workshop at BNL), please fill in the following poll:

https://doodle.com/poll/veu6yg2mcdab7hmf so we can find a slot for our first meeting.

As discussed at the workshop, the fast simulation WG will study the current fast simulation strategy employed by ATLAS, determine whether some or all aspects of fast simulation can be offloaded and explore what could be obtained by using GPUs amongst other topics.

For a recent overview, see, for example, my talk at the workshop for a general introduction to the problem: https://indico.cern.ch/event/742090/contributions/3071864/attachments/1693200/2724726/hgray_bnl_simulation_talk.pdf

We'll be aiming to identify concrete objectives by the end of September so this will be the main topic of this first meeting.

Best regards,
Heather
