Andrea PARENTI

DESY, Hamburg - Germany

I am working at the Deutsches Elektronen-Synchrotron (DESY) in Hamburg, Germany, for the ZEUS and CMS experiments. I am the Monte Carlo Coordinator for the ZEUS experiment: my tasks are to guarantee a smooth processing of Monte Carlo events, coordinate people working on the simulation software, build-up new versions of the Monte Carlo software.   I also made analysis of the ZEUS data using Fortran and PAW. In CMS I am involved in the alignment of the silicon tracker. I am responsible for a package of perl scripts helping in managing a large amount of alignment jobs. I am also doing alignment studies with Monte Carlo events; the software we use for this is C++/root based.
