Abstract

The analysis of high energy physics experiment data is a good example for the need of real-time access and processing of large data sets. In this contribution we introduce the basic concepts and implementations of high energy data analysis on the example of the LHCb experiment at the LHC collider. Already now, but even more once running under nominal conditions it will produce unprecedented amounts of data for years. The contribution will also discuss the potential of parts of the existing implementations to be used in the analysis middleware for future dedicated projects on fast distributed analysis frameworks for LHC data.
