# 21 Risk Analysis and Mitigation Strategies

This chapter is an overview of the process developed by the TDAQ UPR together with the ATLAS Upgrade Project Office to assess, manage and mitigate risks associated with the project deliverables. At the time of the release of this TDR, a documentation package on Risk Management, Risk Analysis and Control is being prepared for the UCG Confidential Material, which will be made available for the UCG review in Q1-2018.

Risk Management has been fully integrated into the TDAQ UPR following the protocols and the guidelines summarised in [21.1], following accepted protocol standards outlined in Refs. [21.2], [21.3]. Risks in the TDAQ UPR are managed by a structured and integrated process for identifying, evaluating, tracking, mitigating, responding to, and managing project risks in terms of three risk categories: cost, schedule, and scope/technical performance.

The design and construction of the UPR are within the experience and expertise of the TDAQ participating collaborators, technical staff and scientists. It is a responsibility and a priority of the entire UPR management to reduce the risk to an acceptable low level for each hardware deliverable. Furthermore, as the UPR relies on a significant number of algorithms in both the Level-0 and the EF systems, risks associated to firmware and software are included in the Risk Management.

The UCG Confidential Material package contains a full description of the Risk Register, with risk identification, impact analysis and mitigation strategy. This chapter only summarises that information and it is organised in two overview sections: Section 21.1 is a summary of the TDAQ UPR Risk Management Plan [21.1]; Section 21.2 lists a few items extracted from the Risk Register, with a short description of the impact and of the possible mitigation strategies associated.

## 21.1 Risk Management Plan

The overall Risk Management approach is described in the Risk Management Plan [21.1], currently in preparation, and consists of a five-step process:

* Identifying potential project risks,

* analysing project risks,

* planning risk mitigation and response strategies,

* executing risk mitigation and response strategies, and
* monitoring and tracking the results and revising the risk mitigation and response strategies.

In this context, a risk is any event not included in the project plan which can have a potential impact on the TDAQ UPR. Every effort has been made to specify the project in a manner that reduces the risk to an acceptable low level. The technical risks to the project that are identified will be addressed as early as possible to assure that they do not impact the timely completion of the project or stress its budget in unexpected ways. Proactive risk identification and mitigation can therefore significantly reduce the probability of unexpected events that could require contingency and/or additional time to resolve.

The system (Level-2) and sub-system (Level-3) coordinators have the responsibility for managing and mitigating the risks associated with their respective WBS areas. They are responsible to identify potential sub-system risks, to analyse these risks, to develop mitigation and response strategies for these risks, and to monitor and track them. The UPL is assisted by the UPR Resource and Risk Manager (UPR-RC), who is formally delegated to coordinate this matter, oversees these processes at the project level, and also has the responsibility for implementing response plans. Risks are reviewed periodically (quarterly) meetings of the eTDSG, in which risks are discussed, updated, and appropriate actions are taken if required.

* The mitigation steps that are/will be taken to minimise that risk from occurring;

* the response to the risk in the eventuality that the risk materialises;

* the impact of the risk on cost, schedule, and performance: the risk impact is classified as Negligible, Low, Medium, or High based on its potential impact on cost, schedule, or performance, see Table 21.2. The performance impact is based on identifying a set of Key Performance Parameters (KPP) and assessing the scientific impact of the risks on those KPPs;

* the risk probability, identified as Low, Moderately Low, Moderately High, or High based on the probability ranges identified in Table 21.1.

* the most probable impact on the cost and schedule, and optimistic/pessimistic impacts quantifying the best/worst case scenarios;

* the overall assessment of the risk based on Table 21.3 that correlates the probability of the risk to occur and the impact of the risk. The overall risk is classified as High, Medium, or Low based on the product of the risk impact and the risk probability.

## 21.2 Risk Register

The process of identifying risks for the TDAQ UPR has followed the procedures summarised in Section 21.1: initial brainstorming sessions and dedicated management meetings between the UPR-RC and the Level-2,3 managers have performed a top-down high-level risk assessment, quantitative risk analysis with evaluation of probabilities and impacts and discussions of mitigation strategies. A detailed set of risks, as well as additional material on the risk mitigation and response plans is being prepared in a Risk Register [21.4] that will be made available at the beginning of 2018 in preparation for the UCG review. For illustrative purposes only the Network part of the Risk Register is shown in Figure 21.1.

<footnote n="1">¹ for finding maxima</footnote>
In this Section only the elements identified at this stage with potentially particular significance are presented.

### 21.2.1 Detector Readout Limitations

The design of the detector's Front-End electronics shall satisfy the 1 MHz L0 rate requirement of the baseline architecture with sufficient margins. However, for certain detector systems, in particular for the innermost ITk-pixel layers, the front-end ASIC's design is specified assuming an estimated occupancy potentially subject to large uncertainties. Should the occupancy greatly exceed expectations, the increase in event size would exceed the bandwidth for the pixel detector front-end readout. Similarly, there are risks that the ITk-pixel front-end data transmission will not operate successfully at the specified 5 Gb/s max. throughput for a Level-0 trigger rates of 1 MHz. The mitigation strategy adopted is explained in detail in Chapter 14, with the system evolving to a dual L0/L1 trigger architecture using regional tracks built from the ITk strip detector and outer pixel detector layer information at Level-1.

### 21.2.2 Projected rates for hadronic trigger signatures

Another risk mitigated by the same strategy mentioned in Section 21.2.1 is due to the uncertainty in the projected trigger rates for hadronic objects at $< \mu >$= 200. The use of tracking at the L1 trigger stage would open up the possibility for a rudimentary primary vertex selection for multijet triggers, allowing for additional hadronic background rejection and a lower overall readout rate for the inner detector pixel layers. Additional details regarding the motivation and criteria for evolution are presented in Section 14.1, followed by the requirements for the evolved system in Section 14.2 and a description of the resulting "evolved" architecture design in Section 14.3.

### 21.2.3 Resource availability of the EF Processing Unit farms

The estimate of the required EF compute power is subject to large uncertainties as described in Chapter 12. The probability of such a risk is relatively low, once the expected luminosity growth in the initial phases of the HL-LHC are taken into account. However, there is a risk that the ATLAS M&O rolling replacement doesn't provide the expected computing power, as described in Chapter 12. To mitigate the risk, the resources required for $< \mu >$= 200 are planned to be available from the beginning of Run 4. There are also software development milestones to check the software performance and ensure that it is on track, and an evaluation of hardware accelerators prior to the decision of which commodity processing technologies to purchase.
### 21.2.4 Hardware Tracking ASIC

Two possible risks of the HTT ASIC have been considered: possible failures during the prototype and design phase may require an additional prototype cycle. The impact might be significant on the schedule of the project, but wouldn't have any impact on the CORE costs of the project. Production-related failures, e.g. very low yield due to marginal design, might require an iteration of the design's cycle, or the submission of a new set of masks, or the purchase of extra wafers. The impact might be high in terms of costs and of schedule. Possible mitigations are schedule advancing, carefully planning prototype, and pre-production, and including two mask-sets in the cost planning.

### 21.2.5 FPGA resource usage

During the design phase of a sub-system that makes significant use of FPGAs, the resource consumption of algorithms to be deployed onto the device might exceed the expected usage. Careful design, timely development of the firmware, and detailed analysis of the resource's performance and usage should keep the probability of this risk low. In case of occurrence, the impact might be significant on the costs of the project, as FPGAs are likely to be main cost-driver. The mitigation strategy would be to design the sub-system suitable for FPGA resource changing and to define the specifications for algorithms such that they respect the resources of the chosen FPGAs.

### 21.2.6 Interfaces and Link speeds

The link speed foreseen in the TDAQ electronics is largely available in today's available technology. However, some sub-systems are planning to use higher link speeds, up to 30+ Gb/s: examples are the interfaces between the LAr and Tile calorimeter Pre-processors and the Global Trigger designed to operate in the 16-25.8 Gb/s range, and the internal links between the Global MUX and GEP modules running at 30+ Gb/s. Significant engineering developments are need to evaluate this type of MGT measuring Bit Error Rate (BER) in dedicated system tests. Possible mitigation is to design the sub-system which is feasible either to downscale the MGT bandwidth and increase the number of connections, or to increase the number of fibres and modules, with possible significant impacts on costs.

### 21.2.7 Latency limitations

The design described in this TDR defines clear envelopes for the latency available at each stage of the trigger data processing, guaranteeing sufficient margins on overall L0 latency. Some of the object reconstruction in the processing FPGAs might risk to exceed the envelope, reducing or eliminating all the pre-defined margins. The probability of the risk should
be moderately low. There shouldn't be any impact on the cost. However, the system's performance penalty could be high as less powerful algorithms might need to be deployed for the trigger's candidate reconstruction.

### 21.2.8 FPGA obsolescence

The CORE cost estimates are based on FPGA devices with sufficient resources currently on the market, with sufficient resources for the functions required to be implemented in each application. There is a moderately low probability that the pre-selected FPGA may become obsolescent and unavailable by the time procurement has to be placed. There may be some moderate impact on the cost of the sub-system if a new generation and more performant device has to be selected.

### 21.2.9 Commissioning time of the Level-0 Muon Trigger sub-system

The L0 Muon contains hardware and firmware elements that may require a commissioning time longer than anticipated before becoming fully operational. The resources available at the TFM should minimise the probability of occurrence of this risk for what concerns firmware. If required, as further mitigation strategy, the sub-system should guarantee additional experienced manpower to finalise the firmware design to deploy on the production units in USA15. The impact of the risk may be limited by the fact that the L0 Muon sub-system may concentrate the effort on commissioning and operating the Sector Logic alone.

### 21.2.10 Commissioning time of the Global Trigger sub-system

Similarly, the Global sub-system is totally a new set of hardware and firmware elements that may require a commissioning time longer than anticipated before becoming fully operational. The risk impact on the ATLAS operations may be limited by the fact that the legacy FEXs and the legacy L1Topo modules will be fully available and operational at the beginning of Run 4 if needed.

### 21.2.11 Readout's I/O bandwidth margins

The FELIX design is optimised to accommodate and manage with large margins the full input bandwidth from the detector's point-to-point sources. The probability of the risk of having the data input bandwidth close to the limit should be negligible by design. The risk of having a less performing system, i.e. the data throughput from the custom I/O cards to the hosting server's CPU doesn't match the input bandwidth, shall be low. The mitigation
would be to redimension the Readout sub-system accordingly with a possible significant impact on the costs of the sub-system.

### 21.2.12 Data Handler processing capabilities for detector-specific functionality

As the detector requirements for data management in the second stage of the Readout sub-systems have not been defined yet, the system described in Chapter 11 may not be sufficient and additional Data Handler nodes would be required. The impact in terms of CORE costs might not be negligible. However, as the architecture is network-based, and therefore fully scalable, and therefore no technical or schedule impact.

### 21.2.13 Event Size

The risk that the ATLAS upgrade would result into larger event size is moderately high. There are several examples that could cause an increase of the event size: (i) the scope of the ATLAS upgrades increases with new detectors and upgrade project; (ii) data compression in the front-end ASICs doesn't perform as expected. Cost impact on the Dataflow and Network sub-systems might be non-negligible. Mitigation technique would be to develop stronger compression at the level of Readout, e.g. in the Data Handlers.

### 21.2.14 Simulation software schedule

The EF software depends on timely delivery of simulation of the trigger upgrades and detector data. EF software components require realistic input data in order to develop and test them. In the case where the sources of these data are new or upgraded trigger or detector subsystems, their data needs to be provided through simulation. This is mitigated by connecting the plans of the EF software with those for simulating the upgrades. However, with the number of new data sources for the EF in the overall upgrade, the risk is moderately high that a delay will occur in at least one of them. This would have an impact on the schedule and/or performance of the EF software, which depends on the length of the delay to the simulation and which components are delayed.
