## Collaboration Tools for the Global Accelerator Network (GAN) Workshop

**Deb Agarwal** (_[DAAgarwal@lbl.gov](mailto:DAAgarwal@lbl.gov)_) and
**Gary Olson** (gmo@umich.edu)
**Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory**

## Global Accelerator Network

- Collaborative operation of a linear collider
- Collaboration extends beyond commissioning phase
- Possibly a control room in each participating country. Each room taking a shift
- Experts on particular equipment might be located remotely

## GAN Process

- ICFA Report
- Cornell Workshop
- Examples of current efforts to provide remote access
- Discussion of controls, tools, and communication
- Outcome - Report
- This workshop
- Study realistic scenarios
- Concentrate on collaboration tools
- Outcome – report and presentation at Shelter Island
- Shelter Island Workshop

## Agenda (cont)

**11:10 - 12:10 Overview of Collaboration Technologies** - Judy Olson (session coordinator) Overview of the whole range of technologies: Gary Olson (10-15 min) Access Grid and workstation docking: Terry Disz (10-15 min) Data analysis tools and electronic notebooks: George Chin (10-15 min) Colaborative computing/Grid technologies/Security: Deb Agarwal (10-15 min) **12:10pm - 1pm Lunch** (provided in meeting room)**1:00 - 3:00 Facilitated session to flesh out GAN scenarios** - Gary Olson (session coordinator)extract details of the work involved in the operation of an accelerator, followed by an analysis of which technologies would support each phase/task. If appropriate, we may break into subgroups (e.g. Accelerator Physicists, Operations (including shift handoff), and Control) or we may do this in plenary. **3:00 - 3:15 Break**** **

## Agenda

**3:15 - 4:30 Develop coordinated strawman proposal for GAN** - Deb Agarwal (session coordinator), Gary Olson (documentation)**4:30 - 5:00 Wrap up, conclusions.****6:00 - 8:00 Hosted dinner at Beckett's in downtown Berkeley** (on Shattuck) Beckett's Restaurant is located at 2601 Shattuck Avenue, between Kittredge and Bancroft. From Hotel Shattuck, cross over to the other side of Shattuck Avenue, and head south (right) for one-and-one-half blocks. Our reservation is held under the group name GAN - Berkeley Lab.
