2. Priorities for Development (per poll)
Standards for code data (particles and fields0, standards for code inputs, standards for data analysis and visualization.
Interoperable libraries of code modules
Customizable and controllable GUIs for design/edition of input decks, control of runs and data analysis and visualization
3D CSR capabilities, with self-consistent dynamics
Enhanced optimization with genetic algorithms
Implement machine learning for optimization
Interface between Genesis FEL simulation program and Bmad toolkit
Vlasov solver tools
“Virtual” education tools
Web-based code repositories
Benchmarking data

3. Proposed organization
How do we and in incubating code-oriented collaborations?
Will identify preliminary collabs by COB today
Concrete mechanisms
Form umbrella collaboration (~an expanded CAMPA)
Initiation (this workshop and follow-up) of sub-collaborations
Periodic teleconference meetings (full collaboration)
Maintanence of Wiki page with many sub-pages
Organization for funding requests
Organizational backbone (minimally, need more institutional reps)
JBR/YKK
Jean-Luc Vay
Dave Bruhwiler
Andreas Adelmann
Jared Maxson
Bernhard Hidding

4. Wiki Page Umbrella home page UCLA or CBB home
Sub-Wikis for each collaboration
Source code
Documentation
Literature
Presentations
Input decks
Discussion boards/FAQs
Benchmarking simulation output; relevant experimental data

5. Teleconferences Meetings similar CBB theme Managed by CBB, Zoom
1.5 hours, biweekly
Short status reports to maintain communication, sharing of challenges
0.5 hour formal seminar style presentations
~9 AM Pacific time for European collaborators…
