PAF Goals
provide (fastest possible) access to TAG (Nano) and MICRO data
+ provide platform independent code
provide full functionality of the BABAR Beta analysis software package
use Beta candidates and refined tools, run existing BABAR analysis code with a minimum of changes
+ allow very fast simple analyses with minimum dependencies = Option 8 (w/o Beta), PAF = Professors’ Analysis Framework ?
+ provide access to the full ROOT analysis functions
provide backward compatibility when the data format evolves
provide fast turnaround (modular shared libs, small code size)
+ use CINT C++ interpreter for parameter setting and development
“+” indicates areas where PAF is superior to BABAR Framework
