1- Moore status after units migration: (Nectarios)
   
Sample used: dc1 single muons(+/-) at various pT points, using Release 7.8.0:

pT=1GeV /castor/cern.ch/atlas/transfer/dc1/roma1/003106 40000 events
pT=6GeV /castor/cern.ch/atlas/transfer/dc1/roma1/003107 40000 events
pT=20GeV /castor/cern.ch/atlas/transfer/dc1/roma1/003100 40000 events
pT=100GeV /castor/cern.ch/atlas/transfer/dc1/roma1/003101 40000 events
pT=200GeV /castor/cern.ch/atlas/transfer/dc1/roma1/003102 40000 events
pT=300GeV /castor/cern.ch/atlas/transfer/dc1/roma1/003103 40000 events
pT=500GeV /castor/cern.ch/atlas/transfer/dc1/roma1/003104 40000 events
pT=1000GeV /castor/cern.ch/atlas/transfer/dc1/roma1/003105 20000 events

The corresponding validation plots are:

- g3moore780_trackanal.ps which contains resolutions and efficiencies
plots
- g3moore780_effeta.ps (for |eta|>2 csc digitization problem?)
- g3moore780_effphi.ps efficiency versus phi
- g3moore780_effpt.ps efficiency versus pt point.(there is a type mistake in the
plot |eta|<2.7)

A "Moore performance" webpage will be setup.

The present status shows an agreement between the results obtained by Moore
before the units migration and the ones after the units migration.

2- MuID status after units migration: (Michela, Monica, Natasha)
Michela reports on the status.
Monica has tested a small set of single muons at 6 GeV and 100 GeV
(first test) on a nightly:  

eff_8.0.0.eps  (6GeV)
eff_8.0.01.eps  (100GeV)

From these plots was evident that there was a problem related to low Pt files (see
eff_8.0.0.eps). The problem has been solved and the bug fix has been committed.
The same plots for the 6 GeV file running from a nightly after the bug fix:

eff_8.new.eps (6GeV)

shows that there is a nice agreement between the results now and the results
before the units migration.

 All the fixes have been collected for release 8.0.0.
Moreover in the Inner Detector: the memory leak problem that was present
has been solved. And between 7.8.0 and 8.0.0 the problem on TRT that was
present since very long time has been solved.

3- Moore/MuID after release 8.0.0 - Plans for the future:
    -- In MuID the new code for low Pt muons will come in (Natasha).
        This will be introduced as a new Algorithm avoiding the conflicts with
        pre-existing code.
    -- A partial migration from the track fitter code is ready to start.
    -- Moore-G4 Test beam. A jobOptions allowing to generate simulated hits,  
        digitize and reconstruct on fly is available under MuonDigiExample. It
        has been tested under AtlasG4Sim environment
    --An Example on how to run G4 data under MuIDExample for Moore and MuID
       will soon be provided. Based on this Example, a script will be elaborated in order to
       run on the nightlies with small  statistic (100 events?).
    --The existing Moore code uses the Detector Description geometrical rapresentation.
       Starting from release 8.0.0 we will migrate to the MuonGeoModel (for the first time
       the 2 representation will both be present.

4- Wider range issues:

     -Common track- Report from the first meeting. - Giorgos shortly summarized from the  
       last Common Track meeting. 

5- Next meeting.
   A tentative date for next phone meeting has been set:

    April 15th: 17:00 GVA time.
