چکیده

The article analyzes a proposed network topology for the ATLAS DAQ DataFlow, and identi es the Ethernet features required for a proper operation of the network: MAC address table size, switch performance in terms of throughput and latency, the use of Flow Control, Virtual LANs and Quality of Service. We investigate these features on some Ethernet switches, and conclude on their usefulness for the ATLAS DataFlow network.

Communication between Trigger/DAQ and DCS in ATLAS

Within the ATLAS experiment Trigger/DAQ and DCS are both logically and physically separated. Nevertheless there is a need to communicate. The initial problem definition and analysis suggested three subsystems the Trigger/DAQ DCS Communication (DDC) project should support the ability to: 1. exchange data between Trigger/DAQ and DCS; 2. send alarm messages from DCS to Trigger/DAQ; 3. issue comman...

Prototype Readout Module for the ATLAS Level-1 Calorimeter Trigger Processors

The level-1 calorimeter trigger consists of three subsystems, namely the Preprocessor, electron/photon and tau/hadron Cluster Processor (CP), and Jet/Energy-sum Processor (JEP). The CP and JEP will receive digitised calorimeter trigger-tower data from the Preprocessor and will provide trigger multiplicity information to the Central Trigger Processor and region-of-interest (RoI) information for ...

Ethernet for the ATLAS second level trigger?

The use of Ethernet in implementing the ATLAS second level at the CERN Large Hadron Collider (LHC) is considered. Tests carried out on a large network testbed using 100 Mbps DS links and switches are used as a reference point. The evolution and present status of the IEEE 802.3 Ethernet standard is reviewed and technical problems in exploiting the technology at the LHC are explored.

Use of Network Processors in the LHCb Trigger/DAQ System

Network Processors are a recent development targeted at the high-end network switch/router market. They usually consist of a large number of processing cores, multi-threaded in hardware, that are specialized in analysing and altering frames arriving from the network. For this purpose there are hardware co-processors to speed-up e.g. tree-lookups, checksum calculations etc. The usual application...
