  7. Motivation for switching from “SPD Mood” to “AMORE SPD” Amount of histograms Problem: SPD Mood contains a lot (2000!) histograms. Solution : Automatic checks, less histograms. CERN ALICE AMORE SPD GUI 7

  9. Motivation for switching from “SPD Mood” to “AMORE SPD” Amount of histograms Problem: SPD Mood contains a lot (2000!) histograms. Solution : Automatic checks, less histograms. Adjustability AMORE SPD is able to satisfy the requirements and it is easy to maintain. CERN ALICE AMORE SPD GUI 9

  14. When you are in shift you are bound to encounter problems, errors and other natural disasters. If that is the case, do not despair, but rather sing the following songs aloud. The problems will still be there, but you'll earn a lot of respect-points from the other detectors. (the louder the better) CERN ALICE AMORE SPD GUI 14

  15. Conclusion Goal of my Summer Student project is to improve the data monitoring software of the ALICE SPD. This involves programming, working with the shifters and keeping track of the physics requirements. Most of the improvements have now been implemented. CERN ALICE AMORE SPD GUI 15
