User contribution to ATLAS

R. Clint Whaley ¹

Abstract:

This paper describes the method by which users can speed up ATLAS for themselves, as well as contribute any such speedup to the ATLAS project. It's written to get you started, in a highly informal (read sloppy) fashion. There's a lot of material that optimally should be covered in detail, which is only hinted at in this document. Since no real attempt has been made to make the document sheerly backward referential, it is recommended that the user at least skim the entire section before attempting to understand and/or apply information from a given subsection.
