GSIM longrun proposal - "final" version

Hi,

David send out an email about this, but I just want to emphasize it:
the proposal version 6 left out the KINE flag, which should be set equal
to 1. In the command line the syntax is

-kine 1

For completeness, I enclose below the entire proposal with the above
fix. I call this the "final" version, in the sense that two institutions
are currently running long jobs based on it.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

GSIM long run - final version of running parameters

We have a distributed farm consisting of some fraction of time from the
following cpu's: (managers/contacts)

MIT - 10 DEC Alphas, 500 MHz (David Rowntree/Jianguo Zhao)
UVA - 13 Linux/Intel 300 MHz (Cole Smith)
FSU - 8 Linux/Intel, more to come (Larry Dennis)
OU - 1 Linux/Intel, (+Linux/Alpha's, others) (John O'Donnell/Allena
Opper)
ODU - 2 DEC Alphas, 500 MHz (Junho Yun/Andi Klein)
3 Linux/Intel 300 MHz
JLAB- a few Linux/Intel 200 MHz boxes (not 100% dedicated) (Will
Brooks/?)

Calculate 3 types of events:

1) elastic scattering (10% of available farm)
2) CELEG with resonances+elastics (60% of available farm)
3) e-p-pi0 events from AO (30% of available farm)

1.645 GeV, 60% magnetic field

Plan to run for 3-4 weeks, re-evaluate as we go along.

Analyze the runs with the 'Dec97' reconstruction program at JLAB.

File sizes: whatever you get from 24 hours of running, at first.
E.g., Linux/Intel @ 300 MHz, expect 1.0 sec/event & 1.0 kbyte/event.
=> ~ 86 Mbytes, ~86,000 events

For DEC Alphas, expect ~0.20 sec/event, => ~ 430 Mbytes, ~430,000 events

(These numbers assume a 100% dedicated machine.)
In practice, plan to start with ~86,000 events for all machines, since
this
is already a 50 Mbyte file from CELEG and the MIT machines may not be
100%
dedicated. We can adjust these numbers with experience.

After we gain some experience, the runs could go longer; because of the
2
Gbyte file limit of unix, the DEC Alpha runs are limited to ~4.6 days.
(We may
eventually need a multiple file output option from GSIM, as the DAQ
has.)

The above numbers depend GREATLY on the FFREAD and command line
parameters,
and remain to be confirmed by practical experience with the farms....
