\title{The IceCube Neutrino Observatory:\\Instrumentation and Online Systems}
\input{authors}
\abstract{The IceCube Neutrino Observatory is a cubic-kilometer-scale
high-energy neutrino detector built into the ice at the South Pole.
Construction of IceCube, the largest neutrino detector built to date, was
completed in 2011 and enabled the discovery of high-energy
astrophysical neutrinos. We describe here the design, production, and
calibration of the IceCube digital optical module (DOM), the cable
systems, computing hardware, and our methodology for
drilling and deployment. We also describe the online triggering and
data filtering systems that select candidate neutrino and cosmic ray
events for analysis. Due to a rigorous pre-deployment protocol, 98.4\% of
the DOMs in the deep ice are operating and collecting data. IceCube routinely
achieves a detector uptime of 99\% by emphasizing software stability and
monitoring. Detector operations have been stable since
construction was completed, and the detector is expected to operate at
least until the end of the next decade.}
