  1. DØ Monte Carlo (and Data) Production Boaz Klima Fermilab Transatlantic Networking Committee Meeting Apr. 18, 2001

  2. DØ MC Products • DØGSTAR – full detailed detector simulation (output – hits and generator info) • DØSIM – digitization, raw data, trigger info (output – digi hits, trig/raw chunks) • DØRECO – reconstruction (output – tracks, objects, particles); also used for data… • DØRECO_ANALYZE – algorithms’ analysis package (output – ROOT-tuple with particles’ info) • DØTRIGSIM – L1/2/3 trigger simulation (output – ROOT-tuple with trigger info) Boaz Klima

  3. DØ MC Products (cont.) • “Average” CPU/event (750MHz PC) and event size for L~1E32 (2.5 additional minbias events) (depends on event type and generator) • DØGSTAR – ~1min and ~1-2MB • DØSIM – ~.5 min and ~.6-2MB (.3MB w/o digi) (Combination with more details and lower cutoffs [cutneu] for evolution as fast as showerlib [fast!] in Run 1 !) • DØRECO – ~1min; 1MB(depends on what’s written out). • RECO_ANALYZE - ~5 sec and ~10Kb. • DØTRIGSIM – ~15 sec and ~10Kb. • Entire chain - ~ 2-3 min Boaz Klima

  4. DØ Data Storage User & Admin. Interface (API and GUI) Station F Project Project Consumer/ Producer Station A Station E Project Consumer/ Producer Project Master DB and Information Servers Consumer/ Producer Mass Storage System Project Global Optimizer Consumer/ Producer Station D Station B Consumer/ Producer Station C • Data Interface via SAM/ENSTORE model Boaz Klima

  5. DØ Data Processing • Run 2 began on Mar. 1, 2001! • Will we have enough CPU power at Fermilab to keep up with data processing? (currently 200 processors) Boaz Klima

  6. DØ Data Samples • Store Data of different sizes: • TMB for basic analysis and event selection. • DST contains enough info for almost all analyses. • STA mainly for debugging purposes. Boaz Klima

  7. DØ Monte Carlo Production • Planto generate ALL MC events off-site: • Currently 1 CPU can fully simulate ~500-1000 events/day. • Current DØ Data “Grid” ~500 CPU’s • Generate 50-100M events/year. • Some farms will be upgraded substantially this/next year *Not Completely DØ Current total Bandwidth to Fermilab ~50-100Mb/sec Boaz Klima

  8. DØ Data “Grid” - Locations Tata(?) Prague Rio(?) Boston Boaz Klima

  9. MC Production Centers (MCPCs) • Massive MC generation offsite - A new philosophy atDØ • Requires control system and careful/smart monitoring • MCPCs are a GREAT deal for DØ • Excellent for DØ physics (closer to e+e- model of Data/MC) • Money spent by (& computers stay at) home institution (not DØ) • Local manpower for software development & maintenance • For some inst. this fits well within grand plan ( LHC, Grid) • Current CPU power for MC ~ 10,000 * Start of Run 1 *100 more MC data than in Run 1 (with full GEANT!) • Thanks to dedicated people at every active MCPC Boaz Klima

  10. DØ MC Production to-date • Generated ~4M MC events for three phases of MC Challenge and processed them through all stages • Testing programs, infrastructure, and exploring physics • MCPCs processing events via the entire chain of programs and shipping RECO output files to Fermilab Boaz Klima

  11. Production – under discussion • Storage, mode of operation • What to store and where (currently RECO output @Fermilab) • Balance between different needs and budget (tapes are expensive!) • Transferring MC data (ftp, FedEx, by hand,…) • Control and monitoring system • Operating large vs medium size MCPCs • Interaction with SAM • Should MC Production centers be ready to process data? (databases,…) • … Boaz Klima

  12. Conclusions • DØ complete MC Production use offsite farms • World Wide “Grid” (2-4 continents) • Currently 6 active MCPCs; soon adding 2-3 new MCPCs • CPU power on Mar. ‘01 ~ 10,000 * Start of Run 1 • Generate 50-100 Million fully-simulated events per year • Shipping them to Fermilab or storing at remote sites? • Generation so far meets demand; extremely useful for all parties • Significant upgrades expected in 2001/2 Capable of generating as many events as data taken at DØ!!! Boaz Klima

  13. Summary for TAN • DØ Monte Carlo Production is up and working now • World Wide “Grid” (2-4 continents) • Currently 6 active MCPCs; soon add 2-3 new ones • Current total Bandwidth to Fermilab ~50-100Mb/sec • Shipping MC data back and forth is essential Total Bandwidth ~200Mb/sec (2001) • Significant upgrades expected in 2001/2/3 Total Bandwidth ~400Mb/sec (2002) • Real data processing at remote farms + reprocessing (?) Total Bandwidth ~800Mb/sec (2002) • Future? my current guesstimate would be Total Bandwidth ~(1200/1600/3200/4000)Mb/sec (2003/4/5/6) • Is TA bandwidth available? TA-institutions in the U.S.?
