Abstract:
Humans tend to err, this becomes especially problematic when trying to make comparisons 
between individuals and their GlueX simulations.  To avoid the pitfalls inherent in the 
GlueX simulation chain, a consistent and easily distributed framework for generating 
Monte-Carlo has been developed (MCwrapper).  It integrates a large variety of use cases 
and is designed to operate on a variety of batch systems in use by the GlueX collaboration.  
Recently, the Open Science Grid (OSG) has been incorporated and successfully tested, thus 
opening up new avenues for Monte-Carlo production for GlueX beyond Jefferson Lab.  In 
addition to the presented work done on simulations a new event viewer has been developed 
for Hall-D.  The event viewer, HDvis, brings a new technology to Hall-D as the visualization 
itself is performed using three.js in a web browser.  This opens up a multitude of 
possibilities including “live” event streaming, detailed animations, and even virtual reality.  
An overview of the new event viewer will be given as well as a demo of the virtual reality 
and event streaming capabilities.
