May 2025 – AliceO2Group/QualityControl: Stabilized cluster visualizer initialization by ensuring the radial profile occupancy canvas is always added during init, independent of the mIsClusters flag. This fixes startup inconsistencies when processing raw digits and improves dashboard reliability. Commit: b9f1b80847516fb63540abe6054b928d7ae95a8e. Impact: more dependable visualizations and downstream analytics; reduced initialization failures and smoother operator experience. Technologies/skills: debugging, canvas rendering, conditional initialization logic, and cross-repo collaboration.

October 2024 monthly summary for AliceO2Group/QualityControl. Implemented a targeted memory-management fix in the ClusterVisualizer to prevent leaks, significantly improving stability for the visualization module. The fix wraps ClustersData in std::unique_ptr, guaranteeing deletion of the contained MergeInterface and reducing memory growth during long-running sessions. This work enhances reliability of QC visualization and reduces risk of production regressions.
