  1. US Organization U.S. ATLAS Electronics Meeting at BNL

  2. US nSW Upgrade – Path to Approval • Review Process – path to Lehman Review & CD1 approval • December 19-20, 2012 at BNL • First review of program, scope and budget with US ATLAS Managers • Recommendation to concentrate on Electronics & Alignment • January 17-18, 2013 at Stony Brook • Mini-Lehman Review for practice – external reviewers • Presented budgets in detail, including cost books and risk analysis • Scope and budget settled • January 30-31, 2013 at BNL • Directors Review of Operations & Upgrade – external reviewers • Recommended more details of milestones, contingencies • March 4-7, 2013 DOE/NSF Operations Review at San Diego • Interface between M&O and Upgrade (Kotcher & Hobbs) • July 11-12, 2013 BNL Directors Review of Upgrade Project at BNL • Will be a ‘Lehman-like’ Review • August 26-29, 2013 Lehman Review for CD1 approval at FNAL • Key that we ‘pass’ this review for $ flow U.S. ATLAS Electronics Meeting at BNL

  3. Upgrade: Phase-1 projects FTK: approved at March 2012 CB; vertical slice tested parasitically in 2012-2013 run; simulation for TDR (physics case) on critical path Muon New Small Wheels: approved at Oct 2012 CB; now following up on milestones, e.g. full size Micromegas (2x1 m2), sTGC trigger demonstrator, etc.  TDR in May LAr (higher-granularity readout for trigger): IDR and kick-off in January; approved by EB  for endorsement at Friday CB TDAQ (LVL1, HLT/DAQ, trigger/online software, etc.): IDR and kick-off in January; approved by EB  for endorsement at Friday CB AFP: IDR and kick-off in Sept 2012  following up on milestones (e.g. project organization, consolidation of physics case)  CB approval in 2014 Consolidating a (coherent) physics case for above projects is one of most crucial/urgent aspects in view of TDRs; presently hampered by severe lack of effort, in all of software developments, validation, performance/physics studies, as well as by computing resources  more involvement also from the upgrade community is needed  efforts being organized to increase synergies with Physics/CP groups

  4. Project Development • Developed draft BOEs and cost book – nSW will be DOE • Schedule for drafts of Bases of Estimate U.S. ATLAS Electronics Meeting at BNL
