JAIDA
JAIDA = Java implementation of AIDA
Complete implementation of AIDA interfaces
With a few exceptions
– limited support for plot styles currently
– Some missing features in ITree, cp, mv
Uses Java “service provider mechanism” for dynamic loading of
services at Runtime
Can be used to add support for new fitters, stores etc.
Have defined “developer level” interfaces for IOptimizer, IStore etc
Uses Java Expression Library (JEL) for runtime compilation of
expressions (for tuple evaluators and functions)
JAIDA, AIDA-JNI, JAS3
July 2003
JAIDA – Features continued…
Fitting
support for multiple fitting engines (optimizers)
Support for multiple fitting methods
Stores
LeastSquares, Chi2, CleverChi2, BinnedMaximumLikelihood and UnbinnedMaximumLikelihood
Read/Write support for AIDA XML format (with built-in gzip)
Read support for HBOOK/PAW files (needs hbookAdapter native library)
Read support for Root files (write support hopefully coming soon)
Future plans to add:
Plotting
UNCMIN (pure Java)
Minuit (needs minuitAdapter native library)
SQL interface, JDO interface, text file support …
Two implementations of IAnalysisFactory
BatchAnalysisFactory – dummy plotter, ignore calls to IPlotter
AnalysisFactory – Full plotter functionality
–
limited user input, for full GUI use JAS3
Multi-Threaded – plots update in real-time as they are filled
No need to call interact() or refresh()
Support for embedding plotter
In other Java GUI’s
In Java servlets for web based applications.
Graphics export in many formats including:
PDF, EPS, SVG, SWF, PNG, GIF, JPG

AIDA-JNI
C++ interface uses AIDA-JNI
AIDA- JNI
AIDA
AIDA
C++ program
JAIDA
AIDA-JNI partially generated by AID, partly by hand
Does not currently support full AIDA functionality
AID improvements (v 0.9.5) coming soon
JNI Adapters generated to interface with JACE generated code
JACE (JNI made easy) version 1.1 code generates connector to allow
access from C++ to Java
AID generates code to implement the AID interfaces using the JACE
generated code
JAIDA, AIDA-JNI, JAS3
July 2003
Future Plans for JAIDA
Complete implementation of missing features
Continue to track improvements to AIDA standard
Add support for function arithmetic
Web Interface (see later talk)
Support for “Remote AIDA” (see later talk)
Support for more storage formats
Need good binary IO format .. either AIDA standard or roll our own

JAS3 Overview
A completely new version of JAS
Design based on Application Shell, into which many (optional)
modules can be plugged
Highly customizable for different application domains
– HEP/Astrophysics/Other
– DST analysis/Online Monitoring/GRID analysis
– Experiment/User specific modules
Modules can be updated independently of shell
– Possible to release bug fixes fast
Includes support for programming in many languages
Scripting: Python, Pnuts, Dynamic Java, ….
– Command prompt
Java (compiled)
Analysis (histograms, tuples, fitting) based on AIDA standard
Not technically backwards compatible with JAS2
But migration is straightforward.
JAIDA, AIDA-JNI, JAS3

JAS3 and AIDA
JAS3 supports all AIDA functionality, including
Histograms (includes arithmetic, projections, etc.)
Clouds (unbinned histograms, scatterplots)
Plotter
Tuples
Fitting – AIDA interfaces allow for multiple fitters
Uncmin -- pure java minimizer
Minuit -- Fortran called by Java Native Interface (JNI)
IO
AIDA XML, PAW, Root
JAS3 supports user interaction with AIDA in three ways
Scripting (Pnuts, Python etc)
Compiled (Java) code
GUI – Plotting, Fitting, Cuts etc.
JAIDA, AIDA-JNI, JAS3
July 2003
JAS3 Scripting
JAS3 has multi-language OO scripting support
Command line, Console, Editor
Major components (e.g. AIDA) have scripting interfaces
Currently have plugins to support
Pnuts – syntax almost identical to Java, fast, well documented
and feature complete
Python (using Jython)
More scripting languages can be added
not restricted to Java implementations (e.g. could use C-Python, JPE)

JAS3 Lightning Tour
Tour designed to
give you an
overview of the
capabilities of JAS3,
you can try them
out for yourself this
afternoon.
Welcome Page, gives initial
info and links to example
scripts and programs
JAIDA, AIDA-JNI, JAS3
Memory
monitor
July 2003
Opening Files
Use file
menu
Drag from
explorer
JAIDA, AIDA-JNI, JAS3
July 2003
Graphical Interface to AIDA
Histograms,
Clouds, Tuples
all presented in
AIDA tree
.aida files,
.hbook files,
.root files all
presented as
AIDA objects
JAIDA, AIDA-JNI, JAS3
July 2003
Drag items onto
page, or use
(popup) menus
Printing
Or
copy/paste
into Word,
PowerPoint
etc.
Can send
individual
plots or full
page
direct to
printer
JAIDA, AIDA-JNI, JAS3
Or save as PS,
EPS, PDF, SWF,
SVG, PNG, GIF…

Java Editor, Compiler and Loader
Tree
shows
loaded
programs
Built-in Java
compiler
JAIDA, AIDA-JNI, JAS3
Built-in
editor for
writing
analysis
code
Unlike JAS2 which only supported “event
analyzers” JAS3 allows any Java program
to be loaded.
This example “main routine” is
July 2003
taken directly from the AIDA manual
Scripting
Can also
write and run
scripts
Console allows
direct interaction
with scripting
language
JAIDA, AIDA-JNI, JAS3
July 2003
Pnuts Language
Currently favour Pnuts scripting language
Complete and well documented
http://javacenter.sun.co.jp/pnuts/doc/guide.html
Fast (although not as fast as compiled Java)
Syntax very similar to Java
Can easily call compiled Java classes from scripts – best of both
worlds

Record Sources
Opening record
(or event)
based files
causes the run
control toolbar
to appear
JAIDA, AIDA-JNI, JAS3
Works similarly to JAS2
Job control, but now also
supports random access
and “tagged” data sets
(mainly for event
displays)

Tuple Explorer - Plots
Histogram
Works with any tuple,
read from file or
dynamically created
ScatterPlot
XY Data
(More appropriate for
smaller data sets)

Status
Currently released JAS3 version 0.7.1
AIDA functionality is quite solid
Compiler, Loader, Record Loop all quite recently added,
Certainly still some rough edges
Documentation limited but available
Built-in example scripts and programs
Tutorial on web
If you are used to JAS2 you will find some functionality
not yet ported to JAS3
Remote (client/server) access to data.
3D Lego/Surface plots

JAS 2 – GRID interface (Tech-X)
JAIDA, AIDA-JNI, JAS3
July 2003
JAS and the GRID
We plan to add client-server/distributed capabilities to
JAS3 similar (but better) than those in JAS2
Will be based on (remote) AIDA
Want to use Grid standards where they exist
Work with others (PPDG-CS11,???) to define standards where they
do not exist
Want to be compatible with C++ servers
But don’t want to loose flexibility of dynamically loading analysis code
into server
Tech-X have phase II SBIR approved and will work closely with us
