A Prototype System for the Processor Farm of theHERA - B Experiment at HERA
نویسنده
چکیده
For the HERA-B experiment at HERA multi-processor systems (farms) for the last levels of the trigger and data acquisition system are planned. Based on implementation studies a concept for a prototype system was derived which will be set up in 1997. It will contain already the main components of the nal system. The hardware decision for the processor nodes will be mainly innuenced by the price/performance ration of the processor nodes. Currently under discussion are workstations and PCs.

For the HERA-B experiment, which will start taking data in 1998, a multi-processor system (processor farm) is planned to perform the third level trigger task and the full event reconstruction online. To study possible architectures and implementations of hardware and software, it is foreseen to build a test system for the processor farm in 1996. If the system can be completed in time, a rst tes...
متن کاملA Test System for the Hera-b Online Trigger and Reconstruction Farm
For the HERA-B experiment a processor farm for the third level trigger and full event reconstruction is planned. It will consist of more than 100 processor nodes, receiving data via high speed data links from a switching network. In 1996, a VME-based system (test farm) was built to test a possible implementation. In parallel, investigations of alternative, non-VME-based solutions for the proces...
متن کامل1 Design and Simulation of the on - Line Trigger and Reconstruction Farm for the Hera - B Experiment
The common third level trigger and forth level reconstruction farm for the future HERA-B experiment will have to perform full on-line event reconstruction and calibration for an expected input rate of 2000 events/s. More than a hundred powerful RISC processors connected in a network capable of distributing several hundreds of MB/s with low latency are likely to be necessary for this task. Prope...
متن کاملDesign and Simulation for Real-time Distributed Processing Systems
The aim of this work is to provide a proper framework for the simulation and the optimization of the event building, the on-line third level trigger, and complete event reconstruction processor farm for the future HERA-B experiment. A discrete event, process oriented, simulation developed in concurrent μC++ is used for modelling the farm nodes running with multi-tasking constraints and differen...
متن کاملHigher Level Trigger Systems for the HERA-B experiment
The HERA-B experiment[1, 2] is designed for observation of CP violation in the B-meson system at the HERA machine in DESY. The data acquisition and triggering system must cope with a half million detector channels, a 40 MHz interaction rate and a signal to background ratio of 10 10. A highly selective multi-level trigger and high bandwidth data acquisition system has been designed and is curren...
