o Four weeks of low latency data analysis on Gaussian noise colored to advanced detector specs o First week -- CBC/Burst unblinded o To end of run -- CBC fully blind / Burst regular unblind, possible blind injections o Pulsar injections added in last week of run (LIGO only) o Executive Summary: Initial choppiness, mostly smooth running by the end of the run About data transfer o In S6 16-second frames were produced by DMT with about 30 second latency and distributed between all the sites withing another 3-5 seconds using disk-to-disk rsync; o In ER1 4-second frames were produced and distributed between shared memories of observatories' and CIT's servers and then between shared memories of CIT server and online analysis nodes; not sure about the exact latency numbers but I would think that frame generation had latency of at least 4 seconds and data distribution took a fraction of a second, John would correct me; GOOD Three and a half pipelines participated: o CBC: gstlal_inspiral, MBTA o Burst: Coherent WaveBurst, experimental gstlal burst pipeline o GraceDB fully operational and now stocked with more information than before: all three pipelines submitted candidates, some got telescope pointing follow up BAD o Software hiccups in data broadcasting o Virgo data drop rate was O(10)x higher than LIGO instruments (5% versus 0.5%) -- might be realistic given increased latency across Atlantic? Needs more investigation Ugly o Need to synchronize frame data format between LIGO and Virgo, some initial confusion led to last minute changes o Injection scheme needs some tuning, mostly done at the last minute o Some egregiously strong burst injections (Chris’ fault) should be toned down in post-ER1 / ER2
