EFTracking integration package and full ITk pass-through Chain
The EFTrackingIntegration
package contains codes for the EFTracking integration developments of using the FPGA accelerator card in Athena environment. For the 2nd demonstrator, individual algorithms are/will be made for each FPGA kernel. For future demonstrators, algorithms of differnt pipelines will also be included in this package. To include the FPGA accelerator in the full ITk pass-through chain, several small changes are made to the InDetConfig
and TrkConfig
packages.
This first MR includes the following items:
- Base class of using OpenCL API
- Algorithm for the Spacepoints kernel
- Algorithm for the Data Preparation pipeline
- Tool for Data Preparation pipeline
- Temporary data formats for the integration development
- Minimum changes to include FPGA accelerator for the full ITk pass-through
