Hi,
There will be a course consisting of a series of lectures on
"Building Software for analysis and reconstruction using OO techniques
and
packages"
at CERN from
Tuesday, November 16th to Friday, November 19th (09:30-10:30 and
11:00-12:00)
in room 40-SS-C01. The lectures are open to everyone. There will be hands-on
sessions in the afternoon in B572 room 23, from 14:00 to ~16:00, for which
people should register (maximum 18). Registration is via URL:

Overview -------- This is a series of software engineering lectures with
exposure to the software technologies and packages relevant for LHC experiments.
It shows, in a practical sense, how software engineering can help in the
development of HEP applications based on the LHC++ software suite and also gives
a taste of working on large software projects that are typical of LHC
experiments. The lectures provide an overview of LHC++ and cover those aspects
of software engineering most relevant for HEP software development. The hands-on
exercises allow students to develop simple applications using components of the
LHC++ suite while following a defined software process. Limited C++ programming
is necessary for the exercises and it is assumed students are aware of the basic
concepts of object oriented design. Schedule -------- Tuesday: Morning * lecture
on introduction to course and sw eng. (Bob Jones) * lecture on introduction to
LHC++ (Dino Ferrero Merlino) Wednesday: Morning * lecture on data storage with
LHC++ (Marcin Nowak) * lecture on sw design (Bob Jones) Afternoon * exercise on
populating database (LHC++ team) * exercise to create tags for events (LHC++
team) Thursday: Morning * lecture on fitting with Gemini (Andreas Pfeiffer) *
lecture on sw testing (Bob Jones) Afternoon * exercise to read the tags, make
cuts and visualize them with HepInventor (LHC++ team) * exercise to fit events
with Gemini (LHC++ team) Friday: Morning
* lecture on sw eng. issues for long-term projects (Bob Jones) * lecture on
future of LHC++ (Andreas Pfeiffer) Afternoon * exercise to fit tags using
real data (LHC++ team) Best regards -- Pavel Binko
