8. 8 Calibration [3] Proposal for calibration and alignment of: Muon groups of Michigan, Munich, Rome (La Sapienza, Roma Tre), Saclay; October 2005. Work subdivision: CERN: splits data in sub-streams (not stored): barrel, end-caps, alignments; Tier1: stores data on tape and sends them to Tier2; University of Michigan: spectrometer end-caps; Munich: spectrometer barrel and alignments tasks; Rome (La Sapienza and Roma Tre): spectrometer barrel;

9. 9 Data Requirements for all calibration centre : t 0 computed weekly: ~20000 muons hits per tube, therefore ~ 10^8 muon tracks each day. Since 1 muon track is  1 KB (while 1 event  1.6 MB), then  100 GB per day; r-t computed daily: the same data collected for the t 0 computation; Alignment parameters updated every 2-4 hours: 2x10^6 muon tracks; negligible w.r.t. 10^8. Calibration and alignment validation: internal consistency of t 0 and r-t functions (still under study) and physical checks with a small fraction of ATLAS data stream (~10^5 events/day: 100 CPU h./day 200 GB/day). Computing requirements for all calibration centre: CPU for calibration: 0.2 s/track  0.2X10^8 sec per day  6000 h. per day  300 processors  300 KSI2K of CPU per day; CPU for alignment: 1 s/track  2X10^6 sec per day  0.2X10^7 sec per day, negligible w.r.t. CPU for calibration; 300 GB of disk space per day. If it is maintained for 1 mounts: 9 TB of disk space;

10. 10 Human resources per calibration center: Supervision of transfer process, functioning of transmission links and reaction to errors: 0.5 FTE; Program running and debugging of calibration software: 0.25 FTE; in centers responsible for alignment tasks: 0.45 FTE; Maintenance and update of calibration software: 0.5 FTE; for alignment task: 0.5 FTE in more; Calibration, alignment and validation: 2-3 FTE (detector or analysis experts). After some experience human resources can be replaced by automated systems and these estimates can be relaxed.
