Analysis Cyberinfrastructure: Challenges and Opportunities

Data Analysis, Statistics and Probability 2022-03-18 v1 High Energy Physics - Experiment

Abstract

Analysis cyberinfrastructure refers to the combination of software and computer hardware used to support late-stage data analysis in High Energy Physics (HEP). For the purposes of this white paper, late-stage data analysis refers specifically to the step of transforming the most reduced common data format produced by a given experimental collaboration (for example, nanoAOD for the CMS experiment) into histograms. In this white paper, we reflect on observations gathered from a recent experience with data analysis using a recent, python-based analysis framework, and extrapolate these experiences though the High-Luminosity LHC era as way of highlighting potential R\&D topics in analysis cyberinfrastructure.
