Abstract
The Visual Physics Analysis (VISPA) software is a toolbox for accessing analysis software via the web. It is based on latest web technologies and provides a powerful extension mechanism that enables to interface a wide range of applications. It especially meets the demands of sophisticated experiment-specific use cases that focus on physics data analyses and typically require a high degree of interactivity. As an example, we developed a data inspector which is capable of browsing interactively through event content of several data formats, e.g., MiniAOD which is utilized by the CMS collaboration. Visual control of a chain of user analysis modules as well as visualization of user specific workflows support users in rather complex analyses at the level of ttH cross section measurements. The VISPA extension mechanism is also used to embed external web-based applications which benefit from dynamic allocation of user-defined computing resources via SSH. For example, by wrapping the JSROOT project, ROOT files located on any remote machine can be inspected directly through a VISPA server instance. We present the techniques of the extension mechanism and corresponding applications.
