During January 2025, Nuno Pinto enhanced the SegmentLinking/cmssw repository by developing lineage indexing features for LHE particle data. He introduced new fields to the LHETable data structure, enabling precise tracing of each particle’s first and last mother within the LHEPart collection. To optimize both memory usage and performance, he migrated index storage from short_t to int16_t, updating the data model and ensuring compatibility with CMSSW15. His work involved C++ development and data analysis, focusing on data types and physics simulation. The depth of the implementation addressed both functional requirements and efficiency, resulting in a robust, maintainable codebase.

January 2025 (2025-01): Delivered LHE particle lineage indexing enhancements in SegmentLinking/cmssw, enabling precise tracing of particle lineage across events and improving data quality for downstream analyses. Implemented new LHETable fields firstMotherIdx and lastMotherIdx, and migrated index storage to int16_t to optimize memory usage and performance. CMSSW15 integration milestone achieved with code push and data-model updates.
