Viktor Pec contributed to the DUNE/dunecore, duneopdet, and duneprototypes repositories by developing and refining detector geometry definitions, data processing modules, and configuration management systems. He expanded GDML-based geometry models for both FD VD and HD detectors, standardized configuration tables, and improved simulation fidelity. Viktor addressed namespace conflicts in C++ code, optimized signal processing performance, and enhanced error handling for data acquisition interfaces. His work included refactoring Perl and C++ scripts, integrating Geant4 and ROOT FFT optimizations, and maintaining repository hygiene. These efforts improved maintainability, reduced misconfiguration risk, and ensured robust, efficient data processing across DUNE’s simulation workflows.
During October 2025, I delivered a feature to configure FFT transformer optimization in the Deconvolution module of duneopdet, enabling performance improvements for long waveforms by adjusting ROOT FFT object instantiation. This was complemented by a bug fix in duneprototypes for APA1 PDS modules where the channel map endpoint links were incorrectly configured; correcting the mappings ensures accurate data routing for multi-link endpoints. Together these changes improve processing performance, data integrity, and overall reliability. Skills demonstrated include performance-driven configuration design, ROOT/FFT integration awareness, cross-repo debugging, and git-based change management.

February 2025 monthly summary for DUNE/duneopdet: Completed a critical namespace refactor to prevent conflicts with the larana OpticalDetector OpHitFinder. Implemented renaming of the OpHitFinder namespace from opdet to duneopdet across multiple C++ files. The change was implemented in commit 41ec728246d0cbdacc22b6401963ae104d05575b. This work enhances build stability, reduces integration risk with the larana stack, and clarifies module boundaries while preserving API compatibility.
