He is developing tools that make it easier for physicists to harness large amounts of computing power and big data for scientific analyses. In particular, he is working on a JupyterLab interface that presents users with an environment pre-configured for modern Python-based data analysis and high throughput computing. The work involves integrating with the CMS Tier-2 at UW-Madison and the Center for High Throughput Computing (CHTC) resources. This includes developing a repository of example and tutorial code that guides users from first interaction with contemporary High Energy Physics packages to performing data analysis on a computing cluster (https://github.com/rpsimeon34/wisc-af-examples). He is also contributing to the fsspec-xrootd project (https://github.com/CoffeaTeam/fsspec-xrootd), which is used in the Analysis Facilities community to remotely access CMS simulation and experimental data. +I am contributing to the Analysis Facilities effort within USCMS computing working with Fermilab scientists Dr. Lindsey Gray and Dr. Nick Smith.
