27 10/06/2015IDM2004 Gloria Luzón (LSC) Deliverables To create a web-page for the working group with : –information about the code comparison and “evaluated” results. –A code repository containing the codes and modified programs. –Links to WP1, WP3-4 for data. –List of publications. Technical report on the first analysis of codes

28 10/06/2015IDM2004 Gloria Luzón (LSC) Our proposal to work  Small working-groups in each institute ( we would like names).  Creation of a distribution list.  Every group should prepare informs about the codes they are using:  Why a specific code has been used and what for?  Main features of the code.  Comparison with experimental data.  Comparison of codes.  Problems, bug and open questions detected. Deadline will appear in Web page http://www.unizar.es/ilias http://www.unizar.es/ilias ~December 04

29 10/06/2015IDM2004 Gloria Luzón (LSC)  Collection of informs and preparation of a first report.  Comments on the report.  First “test” of MC libraries.  Final technical report.  Waiting for more data (and performing simulations to be compared with these data).
