PLAN analytics for enhanced understanding of RUN3 and LS3 activities at CERN
3857
Designed as an internal tool at CERN, PLAN has a pivotal role in the centralization and macroscopic aggregation of technical intervention and enhancement activities planned within the accelerator complex. As part of a broader strategy to enhance tool utilization and extract valuable insights, a substantial endeavor during RUN3 aimed to develop and disseminate analytics derived from tool-generated data. These analytics are seamlessly accessible via a FLASK application, crafted primarily using Python and the Bokeh library, JavaScript, HTML, and CSS. Hosted internally at CERN through OpenShift, it is containerized through Docker, and subject to continuous integration via GitLab. These analytics serve versatile purposes, encompassing the quantification of activities, identification of resource constraints across departments and groups, and the provision of insights into various facilities, projects, and more. Moreover, they play an instrumental role in identifying bottlenecks and critical milestones in planning timelines. These analytics are designed to furnish management and other stakeholders with essential insights, ultimately contributing to wide-ranging improvements across CERN.
