11. How do we develop system agnostic codes?

22/09/2016, 15:00

Second Afternoon Session

Obviously writing code that can run on a desktop or a supercomputer is hard or everyone would be doing it. What tips and tricks can we use to help not code ourselves into a corner in the future?

10. Common Theory and Monte Carlo Tools for Scalable Code

23/09/2016, 08:30

First Morning Session

Discuss possible common tools that both theorists and generator authors can use in their software. These tools should be scalable and portable for use on desktops, servers, clusters, or supercomputers.

12. Experience with current Generators
