Meeting between Users’ Office, LHC experiments, GS/AIS Doris Chromek-Burckhart Head of CERN Users’ Office 16. November 2012
Scope of the discussion Databases storage and manipulation of data concerning experiment, institutes, teams, persons excluded: physics data detector data, installation database, other technical data Experiment/GreyBook/Databases meeting - 16 November 2012- Users' Office –D. Chromek-Burckhart
Purpose and Aims (1/2) • Set the scene: bring together experiments and foundation database experts • Identify commonalities and differences in the types of data, their manipulation, and in the technologies • Which data is entered and stored more than once and how can we improve or avoid this situation • Clarify meaning of certain data • Examples: • List of team members in grey book • List of teams – validity of teams • Collaboration members who appear in the grey book for a given team = allowed on publication list? Experiment/GreyBook/Databases meeting - 16 November 2012- Users' Office –D. Chromek-Burckhart
Purpose and Aims (2/2) • Search for and propose a solution which avoids duplication of data entry and storage • Intermediate solution: provide an synchronization mechanism for feeding data from one db to the another • Ideal solution: A common database • Collaborate for the implementation of an intermediate solution in an agreed framework Experiment/GreyBook/Databases meeting - 16 November 2012- Users' Office –D.
