As part of a general Computing Model upgrade, BaBar has deployed a new analysis model.The new analysis model was designed to overcome the major shortcomings of the previous analysis model.In particular, the new analysis model consolidates several redundant data formats, allows users to customize the data format for their analysis, and provides a wider range of data access options than the old model, while maintaining backwards compatibility with BaBar's existing analysis interface and analysis code base.The new analysis model was used in roughly half the analyses submitted to the recent ICHEP 2004 conference, and has been enthusiastically welcomed by the BaBar analysis community.
