Computing plays an essential role in all aspects of high energy physics. As computational technology evolves rapidly in new directions, and data throughput and volume continue to follow a steep trend-line, it is important for the HEP community to develop an effective response to a series of expected challenges. In order to help shape the desired response, the HEP Forum for Computational Excellence (HEP-FCE) initiated a roadmap planning activity with two key overlapping drivers -- 1) software effectiveness, and 2) infrastructure and expertise advancement. The HEP-FCE formed three working groups, 1) Applications Software, 2) Software Libraries and Tools, and 3) Systems (including systems software), to provide an overview of the current status of HEP computing and to present findings and opportunities for the desired HEP computational roadmap.

In this chapter of the High Energy Physics Software Foundation Community Whitepaper, we discuss the current state of infrastructure, best practices, and ongoing developments in the area of data and software preservation in high energy physics. A re-framing of the motivation for preservation to enable re-use is presented. A series of research and development goals in software and other cyberinfrastructure that will aid in the enabling of reuse of particle physics analyses and production software are presented and discussed.
In modern High Energy Physics (HEP) experiments visualization of experimental data has a key role in many activities and tasks across the whole data chain: from detector development to monitoring, from event generation to reconstruction of physics objects, from detector simulation to data analysis, and all the way to outreach and education. In this paper, the definition, status, and evolution of data visualization for HEP experiments will be presented. Suggestions for the upgrade of data visualization tools and techniques in current experiments will be outlined, along with guidelines for future experiments. This paper expands on the summary content published in the HSF emph{Roadmap} Community White Paper~cite{HSF-CWP-2017-01}
To produce the best physics results, high energy physics experiments require access to calibration and other non-event data during event data processing. These conditions data are typically stored in databases that provide versioning functionality, allowing physicists to make improvements while simultaneously guaranteeing the reproducibility of their results. With the increased complexity of modern experiments, and the evolution of computing models that demand large scale access to conditions data, the solutions for managing this access have evolved over time. In this white paper we give an overview of the conditions data access problem, present convergence on a common solution and present some considerations for the future.
At the heart of experimental high energy physics (HEP) is the development of facilities and instrumentation that provide sensitivity to new phenomena. Our understanding of nature at its most fundamental level is advanced through the analysis and interpretation of data from sophisticated detectors in HEP experiments. The goal of data analysis systems is to realize the maximum possible scientific potential of the data within the constraints of computing and human resources in the least time. To achieve this goal, future analysis systems should empower physicists to access the data with a high level of interactivity, reproducibility and throughput capability. As part of the HEP Software Foundation Community White Paper process, a working group on Data Analysis and Interpretation was formed to assess the challenges and opportunities in HEP data analysis and develop a roadmap for activities in this area over the next decade. In this report, the key findings and recommendations of the Data Analysis and Interpretation Working Group are presented.
Data processing frameworks are an essential part of HEP experiments software stacks. Frameworks provide a means by which code developers can undertake the essential tasks of physics data processing, accessing relevant inputs and storing their outputs, in a coherent way without needing to know the details of other domains. Frameworks provide essential core services for developers and help deliver a configurable working application to the experiments production systems. Modern HEP processing frameworks are in the process of adapting to a new computing landscape dominated by parallel processing and heterogeneity, which pose many questions regarding enhanced functionality and scaling that must be faced without compromising the maintainability of the code. In this paper we identify a program of work that can help further clarify the key concepts of frameworks for HEP and then spawn R&D activities that can focus the communitys efforts in the most efficient manner to address the challenges of the upcoming experimental program.
