iSpy是一个通用的事件数据和探测器可视化程序,它是作为LHC CMS实验的事件显示而开发的,并已被公众和教师和学生用于教育和推广。iSpy设计理念的核心是易于安装、使用和扩展。该应用程序本身使用开放访问包Qt4和Open Inventor,并作为完全绑定的可执行文件或标准安装程序包分发:用户只需下载并双击即可开始。支持Mac OSX、Linux和Windows。iSpy可渲染标准的2D、3D和表格视图,其架构允许采用通用方法生成新视图和投影。iSpy以IG格式读取和显示数据:事件信息以压缩的JSON格式文件编写,旨在通过网络分发。这种格式易于扩展,使iSpy客户端与原始输入数据源无关。IG格式是用于向公众发布经批准的CMS数据的格式。
iSpy is a general-purpose event data and detector visualization program that was developed as an event display for the CMS experiment at the LHC and has seen use by the general public and teachers and students in the context of education and outreach. Central to the iSpy design philosophy is ease of installation, use, and extensibility. The application itself uses the open-access packages Qt4 and Open Inventor and is distributed either as a fully-bound executable or a standard installer package: one can simply download and double-click to begin. Mac OSX, Linux, and Windows are supported. iSpy renders the standard 2D, 3D, and tabular views, and the architecture allows for a generic approach to production of new views and projections. iSpy reads and displays data in the ig format: event information is written in compressed JSON format files designed for distribution over a network. This format is easily extensible and makes the iSpy client indifferent to the original input data source. The ig format is the one used for release of approved CMS data to the public.
