Experience with multi-threaded C++ applications in the ATLAS DataFlow software
Abstract
The DataFlow is sub-system of the ATLAS data acquisition responsible for the reception, buffering and subsequent movement of partial and full event data to the higher level triggers: Level 2 and Event Filter. The design of the software is based on OO methodology and its implementation relies heavily on the use of posix threads and the Standard Template Library. This article presents our experience with Linux, posix threads and the Standard Template Library in the real time environment of the ATLAS data flow.
