- Instrument Design: Kron
- Target Catalog: Jouvel, Abdalla
- Survey Strategy: Serrano, Nord, Annis
- Fiber Allocation: Forero, Nord
- Throughput: Nord, Saunders
- Signal-to-noise: Coles, Cunha, Abdalla
- Redshift Estimation: Coles, Cunha, Abdalla
- Science: Kirk, Amara, Gaztanaga, Nichol, Beynon
Subsystem Organization:¶
- Passing inputs/outputs:
- Plan for organizing the pipeline: https://cdcvs.fnal.gov/redmine/attachments/download/7231/recommendations_despec.doc
The following elements are listed next to each variable in "Inputs/Outputs" section of each Subsystem - Each subsystem has inputs and outputs: galaxy spectra and counts are the variables that are fed through each subsystem. In the examples below (and on each subsystem page):, the first input in the list is the variable (spectrum) and others are parameters (which might be wholly independent from other subsystems or come from another).
- Each subsystem receives from another and sends to another
- Examples:
- Input: item [ from where ] [prior]
- Output: item [ to where ]
- Plan for organizing the pipeline: https://cdcvs.fnal.gov/redmine/attachments/download/7231/recommendations_despec.doc
- Technical details of the pipeline: specifics for workflow components
- parameter and data file types
- codes to be used
- workflow design

Preliminary set of milestones¶
There are pre-Snowmass and Snowmass meetings in March(ish) and July(ish), so we want to have this pipeline many times by May/June at the latest.- At December Texas Meeting
get last i/o params for each moduleEstablish timeline for sets of runsestablish priorities of what sim pipeline should say about instrument designDecide which trade studies we will do --what kind of parameter variations will we perform?-Think about pre-DESpec deployment projects/publicationsSign up for code developmentClarify exact flow of pipelineDecide on which languages to use.each group should identify some quality assessment tests
