Project Office
Information in ACCESS DB Tracking functions automated Use of project office for procurements
Major procurements: 10% Mock Data Challenge (’03) 40% Facilities ramp (end of 04) 100% Facilities ramp (05)
PCAP Review 26 Oct, 2000
Coordination with Intl. ATLAS
Common WBS, schedule Working to same milestones Trying to ramp up presence at CERN Multiple Tutorials given on
control/framework Software Agreements in progress
(control/framework is prototype agreement)
PCAP Review 26 Oct, 2000
Contingency
Major issue: Funding profiles very tight Uncertainties large for a fixed set of
deliverables Factors of 2 or more in some cases
Adopt this model: “Build to cost” – drop requirements as
needed to meet deliverables Add 10% project reserve to help put deal
with crises – year by year allocation Agreement with CMS
PCAP Review 26 Oct, 2000
Major U.S. Project Components
Regional Center at Brookhaven User support facility
Software “Core” software
Control/framework Data management
Detector Specific reconstruction Support, training
Physics Event generators, physics objects
Computational grids Tier 2 facilities
PCAP Review 26 Oct, 2000
Regional Center
Goals: Support U.S. Physicists in analysis Support ATLAS Collaboration Hub of U.S. ATLAS Grid
Status: Support hires Center running, providing support Planning for ATLAS, Grid activities Acquisition of more Linux boxes
Support for CPU intensive jobs– Shielding calculations
– Trigger studies
PCAP Review 26 Oct, 2000
Muon Level 2 Trigger
Radius of curvature map for muons.

PCAP Review 26 Oct, 2000
Challenges in Project Planning
“Projectizing” Accounting and tracking systems (DONE) Revision to Project Management Plan (DONE) Preparations for “Lehman” review (NOW)
Integration with International ATLAS Need more support functions at CERN (In
Progress) LHC Computing review (in progress)
Concerns about CERN IT division
Coping with funding profiles ($5M short integral) Poor match particularly in software Seeking relief in FY 02-04

Profile Effects
Substantial delay in services at Regional Center Mass Storage System support delayed until
FY 04. Impacts ability to perform ’03 Mock data
challenge
Software development can’t work with this profile Need flatter profile (FY 02-04) Still, integral eliminates all detector
specific tasks (mainly impacts universities)
PCAP Review 26 Oct, 2000
Fallbacks
Overall: scale back on requirements Software:
Degree of grid automation Overall requirements
– (e.g. carrying two vs. one DB product) Shifting personnel
– (e.g. CERN location of SW pros)
Hardware Reduction of scope of RC… Delay of purchases – Moore’s law Alternative data-analysis strategies
Comment: user part of facilities is conservative
