Offline Software Management of the AMS experiment
Abstract
The Alpha Magnetic Spectrometer (AMS) is a particle physics experiment installed and operating aboard the International Space Station (ISS) from May 2011 and expected to last through 2028 and beyond. The AMS offline software is used for data reconstruction, Monte-Carlo simulation and physics analysis. This paper presents how we manage the offline software, including the version control, automatic integration, automatic deployment, and the distribution.
