Physics Analysis Coordinator
Responsibilities are being drafted by STAR management in consultation with Computing, but in general terms they are
- Ensuring event generator needs for the different analyses are understood and fulfilled
- Coordinating working group input into the design tradeoffs in the simulation (eg. detail vs. speed), capabilities, performance
- Working with reconstruction to ensure needed functionality exists
- A major role in coordinating analysis software design and development and in delineating responsibilities between reconstruction and physics analysis
- Coordinating DST content requirements of the working groups
- Feeding back performance and quality information to simulation and reconstruction based on usage
- Recruiting
These are all responsibilities relative to computing; other possible roles are not a computing issue.
Management is actively working on finding a person.
