Scalable AI-assisted Workflow Management for Detector Design Optimization Using Distributed Computing

arXiv:2603.30014v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: The Production and Distributed Analysis (PanDA) system, originally developed for the ATLAS experiment at the CERN Large Hadron Collider (LHC), has evolved into a robust platform for orchestrating large-scale workflows across distributed computing resources. Coupled with its intelligent Distributed Dispatch and Scheduling (iDDS) component, PanDA supports AI/ML-driven workflows through a scalable and flexible workflow engine. We present an AI-assisted framework for detector design optimization that integrates multi-objective Bayesian opti
