Book-keeping User requirements document

   

1 Physics data

Under this heading, we will describe what we should find in this book-keeping.

1.1 DATA type

The type of data need to be idenfied. Mainly it will be real data, beam or Monte Carlo data.

1.2 Physics channel

The type of production which have been produced need to be idenfied.

For example some value could be : minimum bias, bb inclusive, , , ,...

1.3 Generator

For the Monte Carlo data, different production are made with different generator. So we need to identify the parameter for each generator which are used. The production must be specify, the decay and the kinematical cuts.

Version

1.4 Simulation

For the production, we have to know which simulation program have been used. We need to store the version of the database (detector database) which have been used and the version of the simulation program.

1.5 Reconstruction

For the production, we have to know which reconstruction program have been used. We need to store the version of the database (detector database) which have been used and the version of the reconstrution program.

1.6 Statistics

We need to have some statistics on the production. The RUN number, the number of events, the seeds.

1.7 Data location

We need to know where the production have been done and on which support the data are sitting.
