Hi,

  I've recently finished three papers on Java-based detector
reconstruction and analysis that I presented at last year's
Linear Collider workshop in Sitges, Spain. You can find them as

  http://www.lbl.gov/~ronan/papers/Sitges99/JAS_hep.lcd.ps		also
available as SLAC-Pub-8301

  http://www.lbl.gov/~ronan/papers/Sitges99/LCD_Tracking.ps				 
SLAC-Pub-8389

  http://www.lbl.gov/~ronan/papers/Sitges99/W_Reconstruction.ps				 
SLAC-Pub-8390

The first one mentions some things about Java and Tony Johnson's Java
Analysis Studio, and describes
in some detail the Linear Collider Detector (LCD) reconstruction and
analysis system. The second
one outlines the current state of the track reconstruction software and
documents the Java software
OO design. The last one is our first attempt at full event
reconstruction and jet-jet mass determinations.
It stops short of detailed comparison of Large versus Small detector
designs but gives the setting for
making such comparisons. It also completes the documentation of this
past year's LCD software effort.

  I have the following items on my to-do list
  1.) Update Tracking tutorial
  2.) Move Jet finding and W analysis code to the LCD contributions
directories.
  3.) Integrate some CheaterClusterFinder modifications and Event
Display plugin improvements into standard LCD packages.

Please let me know if you any questions.

P.S. My write-up of the Tracking code does not include Nick's fitting or
combined pattern recognition. I plan to
start using his improvements for future work.
