This will be accomplished by means of a Real-Time Analysis (RTA) pipeline, a key system of the CTA observatory. The latency and sensitivity requirements of the alarm system impose a challenge because of the large foreseen data flow rate, between 0.5 and 8 GB/s. As a consequence, substantial efforts toward the optimization of this high-throughput computing service are envisaged, with the additional constraint that the RTA should be performed on-site (as part of the auxiliary infrastructure of the telescopes). In this work, the functional design of the RTA pipeline is presented.ELETTRONICOenConference paper10.48550/arXiv.1307.6489https://ui.adsabs.harvard.edu/abs/2013ICRC...33.3099B/abstract2013ICRC...33.3099BFIS/05 - ASTRONOMIA E ASTROFISICAERC sectors::Physical Sciences and Engineering::PE6 Computer Science and Informatics: Informatics and information systems, computer science, scientific computing, intelligent systems
