MenuGeneration

L1 trigger menu generation project

To include in a CMSSW build (assuming you have initialised it for git somehow):

cd $CMSSW_BASE/src
git clone [email protected]:cms-l1trigger-menustudies/MenuGeneration.git L1Trigger/MenuGeneration

This will put the package in L1Trigger/MenuGeneration. You will need to have git setup for github, follow the instructions from the cms-sw page if you haven't done so already.

Dependencies

The package requires some L1 Trigger DPG packages that were always kept in UserCode for some reason. As such they haven't been transferred over to git and have to be downloaded with cvs:

cvs co UserCode/L1TriggerDPG
cvs co UserCode/L1TriggerUpgrade
cvs co -d L1Trigger/UCT2015 UserCode/dasu/L1Trigger/UCT2015

Usage

There is some documentation in doc/menuGenerationDocumentation.doc which doxygen can make into a webpage. To do that in CMSSW you also need the Documentation/ReferenceManualScripts package in $CMSSW_BASE/src or it won't work, then just execute "scram b doc". The files will be put in $CMSSW_BASE/doc.

Instructions from scratch

scram project CMSSW CMSSW_6_0_1
cd CMSSW_6_0_1/src
cmsenv
# This next command gives an error for me but still seems to work
git cms-addpkg Documentation/ReferenceManualScripts
git clone [email protected]:cms-l1trigger-menustudies/MenuGeneration.git L1Trigger/MenuGeneration
cvs co UserCode/L1TriggerDPG
cvs co UserCode/L1TriggerUpgrade
cvs co -d L1Trigger/UCT2015 UserCode/dasu/L1Trigger/UCT2015
scram b -j 6
scram b doc

This will build the package and create the documentation. Note that L1Trigger/MenuGeneration is not particularly dependant on the CMSSW version. The versions of the L1 DPG pacakages is more important. To view the documentation:

menugeneration's Issues

Add threshold errors to menu fit and calculate rate

Threshold errors are currently only added when menu rates are scaled. This should be changed so that errors are also added when a menu is fitted with l1menuFitMenu, or the rate calculated with l1menuCalculateRate.
