Description

Minutes of TDAQ meeting, 10-Feb-2022

Readout technologies:

  • TDAQ (IF04) status: 
    • Started overleaf project and identified a few initial contributors.
    • Will have a brief meeting once they have enough content to steer the scope
  • Electronics group (IF07) will focus on detector readout transmission to next layer
  • We should stay synchronized on the content of each area's white papers on link technology needs

Innovations in TDAQ:

  • Overview of abstract and outline shown and discussed
  • Sketches out concepts, largely but not solely focused on collider physics, organized around LOIs but more thematically to give a more holistic approach
  • Emphasizing also *operating* large scale systems in addition to designing and building
  • Added a section to the white paper on building and retaining domain knowledge and technical expertise, even though there is not a specific LOI in TDAQ.
    • This is supported by the conveners as an important concern for TDAQ !

Discussion:

  • We should keep track of which LOIs are incorporated into a white paper in some manner, and any TDAQ ones that are not
  • Writers should let us know if any topics may cut across other groups or frontiers (e.g. wireless control of large-scale systems?), as it may strengthen the arguments for such R&D
  • Conveners need to stay abreast of any overlaps with other frontiers, such as with computing, or topics that cut across frontiers, and make sure all sides are aware
  • Some repetition in white papers in different domains would be okay, worse is to have something fall through the cracks. 
  • Bibliography file with LOIs, Wes has volunteered to do this.
