Information Systems and Data Acquisition for ATLAS The team Conditions DB What was achieved Helmut Wolters This team consolidated its position, within the ATLAS Trigger and Data Acquisition (TDAQ) group, in all areas it holds responsibilities. We KTIDBExplorer/NODE António Silva Miguel Oliveira Jaime Villate Diana Urbano Many mainstream software packages under our responsibility with 'nightly' quality control: tidb2, ktidbexplorer, InDetCalibStream The Online Asynchronous Interface to COOL (ONASIC) was successfully implemented and deployed in the Technical Runs. Our group is responsible for th The OKS2COOL layer between the online Object Kernel Support (OKS) tier and the offline Conditions Database COOL/LCG tier was implemented, fitted The Database Stressor Tool (DBStressor) was successfully deployed during the '06 Large Scale Tests. The results obtained with this tool provided important The KTIDBExplorer Qt- and TIDB2-based browser was used during the Jan'07 Technical Runs for COOL Conditions Database data validation: ONASIC da We designed a LTPIM prototype and the VHDL codes for the full VME slave interface and module control We developed, tested and validated the Local Trigger Processor Interface Module (LTPIM) hardware electronics NODE António Amorim João Simões José Augusto Lourenço Lopes Guiomar Evans Belmiro Pinto Ricardo Neves ONASIC/ONASIC2 João Batista SetCon ditions The team shall continue to contribute decisively to the advancement of knowledge in the domain of the information systems for HEP e ONASIC IS2O KS IS OK S Publications only in 2006 in conference proceedings: OKS2 COOL OKS2CO OL2 (OKS2TID B2) ONASIC2 COO L/ COO L2 MySQ L TIDB 2 Caracinha, Farthouat, P.
