A Algorithm The purpose of the Algorithm package is to provide framework support for concrete reconstruction Algorithms. These classes inherit from the abstract AlgBase class. AlgBase provides abstract base class support for common interfaces and traits of concrete Algorithm classes. B BField BubbleSpeak C CDFMonitoringFwk CalDetPIDSR CandClusterSR CandData Basic classes for the Candidate I/O Record containing reconstructed objects. These classes inherit from Record abstract base classes. CandDigit Basic reconstructed digit Candidate class, Algorithms and Modules CandEvent Obsolete package for reconstructed events - ignore CandEventSR CandFitTrackSR CandShowerSR CandSliceSR CandStripSR CandTrackSR CandVtx Obsolete package for reconstructed vertices - ignore Candidate The purpose of the Candidate package is to provide framework support for reconstructed objects. These classes inherit from the CandBase class. CandBase provides abstract base class support for common interfaces and traits of concrete Candidate classes. Conventions The Conventions/Munits.h (Minos units) header defines a namespace in which a number of conversion factors are given. D DatabaseInterface The DatabaseInterface package provides optimised read and write access to database tables of Detector Description (e.g. calibration constants) and Algorithm Configuration (e.g. track fitting module). To read data, the user provides an event context (basically the type of detector and the date and time of the event) and the package assembles a table in memory containing all rows that are suitable for the event. To write data the user provides the package with a validity range (a set of detector types and dates) and the table rows that have that validity range. DeMux Demo Dependency A suite of tools designed to look for interdependencies in the code, in order to better organize it and control compile-time issues. Dispatcher The purpose of the dispatcher package is to handle the distribution of data from the online systems (DAQ & DCS) to the near-online client applications which need access to that data. The package supports a subscription mechanism by which clients may subscribe to certain subsets of data. The package also supports data transfer over the internet, so that clients may be remote from the data sources. DocBuilder A set of scripts and executable that uses the ROOT self-documentation system to generate an HTML version of the code for browsing. DynamicFactory A framework class to dynamically link, catalog in a "loan pool" and serve out objects of prearranged categories. Currently only used to manage (Algorithm, AlgConfig) pairs in connection with the AlgFactory class in the Algorithm package. E F G G4I H I IoModules Modules to read detector data from different streams into the offline framework. Islands J JobControl Construction and configuration of reconstruction and analysis jobs. Provides a framework for users to plug their reconstruction and analysis code into the framework. K L Lattice The Lattice package is provides a transient method for defining an arbitrary n:m relationship between two sets of objects. No restrictions are placed on the types of objects in the relationship but the interface is not type safe and users are urged to use the Navigation package to navigate a Lattice once it has been built. LeakChecker The LeakChecker package is a very simple leak checker facility developed as part of the framework to provide the first level of defense against memory leaks. It can be used to allow basic leak checking to be built into package validation. The user has to add probe points to their code (which can be turned off at compile time) and can request summaries of the total number (high-water mark and current) for a given class or all classes. M MIDAD (Minos Interactive Data Analysis and Display): A mini framework for building MINOS event displays. MINF_Classes A legacy package to support the Minfast interactive event display program "minfastjob". Minfastjob displays data from the REROOT_Classes package for "rerooted" GMINOS MC data. MessageService Coordinates the printing of error/warning/debug messages. Allows for routing and throttling of messages based on senders and priority. Minfastjob A legacy package used to build the "minfastjob executable for interactive display of "rerooted" MC event data. MinosObjectMap Monitoring MuonCalibratorSR N Navigation The purpose of the Navigation package is to aid navigation of the event and detector object structures. The navigation objects are transient, that is to say they are created as necessary and are not stored permanently. The idea is that designers of the event and detector object structures provide code to create the navigation objects on demand. The end user sees a uniform interface via these navigation objects and can select and sort without needing write access to the underlying structures. NumericalMethods O OscProb P Persistency The purpose of the persistency package is to provide a set of tools for managing the I/O of event data from user processes to data file. It makes use of the persistency tools provided by ROOT to serve this purpose. The Persistency package exists as an intermediate layer between the IoModules package and ROOT. Plex plexus n., pl. -us or -uses Anat. A structure in the form of a network, esp. of nerves, blood vessels, or lymphatics; the solar plexus. [< Lat. p.p. of plectere, to plait.] The purpose of this package is to handle the logical connection between elements of the detector above the physical level. It would not be concerned with the placement of physical strips and steel, but instead be responsible for providing the navigation from strips to fibers to pixel spots to pixels (anodes) to tube and/or electronics chip. It should also allow a reverse navigation. Q R R2Hbook a very basic utility that allows the oconversion of a ROOT file containing TNtuple objects into an HBOOK file. It has been written solely as a stop gap so that physicists, who have not had the time to learn to use ROOT as an analysis tool, can use it to look at first Calibration Detector data. TNtuples (ROOT's equivalent of the HBOOK row-wise n-tuple ) are the only type of object the utility can convert. REROOT_Classes A legacy package to represent GMINOS MC event data (originally in ADAMO format) in "rerooted" ROOT format. Each ADAMO <table> has a corresponding REROOT_<table> array. RawData RecoBase Record Framework base class support for I/O record classes like RawRecord, CandRecord and HistRecord. Registry A heterogeneous type-safe collection of mappings from strings (keys) to arbitrarily typed values. RerootExodus Rerootjob A legacy package used to build the "rerootjob" executable. This executable converts GMINOS' ADAMO table output files to "rerooted" ROOT files of REROOT_<table> arrays. Rotorooter The rotorooter is a server that accepts buffers of data from the MINOS DAQ (Data Acquisition) or DCS (Detector Control System) or their proxies and turns those buffers into MINOS standard RawRecord objects containing RawDataBlocks. It manages naming, opening and closing the files and the streams (TTrees) within a file. S SRT_MINOS SoftRelTools Swimmer Given a validity context (Bfield & Geometry) and a particle's mass, charge, initial position and momentum, this package traces the particle until a user-provided condition (z-position, momentum) is met. T TOOL_Classes A legacy package which illustrates techniques for passing function pointers (between C++ and CINT) for data navigation tasks. U USER_Classes A legacy package containing a class useful for pulling neutrinos (random type and energy) from envelope flux spectra, with constant relative proportions. UgliGeometry To supply a single, unified access to the geometry of the detector. There are three major users of the geometry, each of which has different requirements but all of which must not see substantially different interpretations when referring to the same physical object. The three classes of users are the:- Simulation which uses the geometry for tracking particles. Simulations should have sufficient detail but might rely on external package (e.g. GEANT) for volume navigation. Event Display which generally uses a simplified representation that omits inconsequential details. Reconstruction Algorithms which use the geometry for a variety of purposes. UserManualDoc V Validity This package helps manage the validity of parameters of other packages. W WebDocs X Y Z
