Analysis strategy Candidates produced in one go starting from the AOD (or ESD) and writing output to delta. AOD this is done in the Official AOD-creation train (which starts from ESDs) but can be done also in successive train that reads the alreadyproduced AOD and re-creates only the delta. AOD file new functionality provided by Andrei, and tested Candidates analysed with trains that read AODs+delta. AOD output as histograms run very frequently (central AOD trains + invidual users) Ø very good Grid performance/stability since a few months – about 70 M AOD events analyzed successfully, at least weekly ALICE Offline Week, CERN, 17. 03. 10 Andrea Dainese 4

General PWG 3 -barrel Issues / Requirements Fixed schedule for trains or runs on demand? ESD monthly? Ø producing AODs and running analyses on ESDs and AODs AOD bi-weekly? Trains on real data (and data-taylored MCs) for 2009 data, we run privately (no AODs+deltas were produced) would be good to establish a regular schedule also for these Ø AODs+deltas shortly after data taken Ø statistics increases quickly with data Ali. Physics. Selection (see also next talk): Ø applied on ESDs only selected AODs Ø at the moment managed centrally by First Physics – who will take this job on the longer term?

General PWG 3 -barrel Issues / Requirements Analysis scalability: things work well now, for data and MC BUT: we analyze now at most ~7 x 107 events we will have to analyze 20 times more events (>109) x 2 (data and MC) Ø never tested Ø not all PWGs have same high-stats requirement Productions: we join other PWGs in requesting a production of pp min-bias at 7 Te. V to start soon plus our specific requests (7 Te. V) Ø J/psi production (already in Monalisa) Ø charm forced production (approved by PB, to be entered in Monalisa) ALICE Offline Week, CERN, 17. 03. 10 Andrea Dainese 18
