Topics to be discussed within the different working groups:
Storage & Remote Access
(chair: Derek Feichtinger)
• Band width requirements
• Data storage / data compression / data size / can users take their data home? Technical implications
• Remote experiment access
• Remote data access
• Pre processing of the data be-fore storage (high priority).
• Hardware issues: pre-processing transmission on storage.
Data Analysis
(Chair: Bruce Patterson)
• Experimental metadata, software / digital logbook I
• Standard data analysis software? Online analysis. Acces to data should be very fast, in order to decide what to measure next.
Question Key Notes:
How do users get their data?
How is data analysis performed?
What is the data rate?
What is the expectation concerning inside-group IT know how?
Typical size of groups
IT personnel needed, central services (PSI, SwissFEL)
IT personnel needed (user support)
Financial resources (hardware, licenses)
Comparison requirements FEL vs. synchrotron
