Minutes of the E614 Software Meeting

                   12:30 Tuesday, 30 November 1999


 ABSOFT compiler:

       The ABSOFT compiler has been installed at Valparaiso, Alberta
       and Texas A&M.  However it will not allow the display package
       to be linked at Valparaiso.  At TRIUMF the package links OK 
       on the Alpha machines.  It also links on LINUX but promptly
       dumps the core in the photo command.

 Pattern recognition:

       Jim Musser is currently working on this.

 Changes to MOFIA:

       Maher has suggested that a hit index be included in the 
       DCWhits and DCPhits structures so that one can now loop over
       only the wires that have hits instead of looping over all 
       wires in all planes to find hits.

  Digitization in GEANT:

       The next version of the E614 Monte Carlo will generate TDC
       times by using a lookup table for isochrones in the drift cell.
       So Takei is gathering the isochrone data from Yuri's GARFIELD
       studies.  The digitization will store the locations of all the 
       charge clusters (up to 40 currently) within a drift cell, so 
       that in principle times for each cluster are available.

 GEANT history file/bank:

       Roman will begin to look into this again.

 Interactive GEANT:
 
       Interactive GEANT appears to work on lin01 (LINUX) at TRIUMF
       but not at Texas A&M.  It may be that they need a MOTIF 
       license.
