convert the ALEPH data (preferably LEP2 data) from the
BOS bank style into
persistent objects and write them to an Objectivity/Db
database (type "onlineDoc" on hpplus to get online help about the object database)
rewrite a miniversion of the ALEPH analysis package
ALPHA
in an object oriented computing language (C++), based on the Objectivity database
compare standard and OO performance with regard to efficient access of the data
test the software engineered by the
RD45 and the
LHC++ projects, which evaluate
data storage and analysis option for the LHC experiments. Here you have links to the
LHC++ manual and to a
seminar given by Dirk Duellmann on Object databases
Provide some input/experience for the LEP archive project
Give an opportunity to learn OO programming and design
