3D Pixel Sensors Implementation Into CMSSW

The High Luminosity LHC will force their experiments to cope with harsh radiation environments, in particular within the detectors closest to the interaction point. Pixel detectors in CMS will have to survive a fluence in excess of 1E16 neutron equivalent per centimeter squared . CMS, like ATLAS, will fill their innermost layers of the tracker with a new radiation-tolerance technology: the 3D pixel sensors. This technology must be implemented in the CMS full simulation. The implementation will enable the optimization with the Monte Carlo simulation of the several sensor and modules layouts currently being considered, and the potential hit reconstruction algorithms to be used. The aim of this project is to include the 3D sensor pixels in the CMSSW full simulation.
