Video conferencing only

Kostis: News

  • Auto-update of docs fixed (some modifications)
  • Pull request for single/double precision runs
    • 30-40 % speed up possible

Panagiotis: News

  • CPU/GPU well separated now

Alex: Pull request

  • BLonD-common new version
  • Ring, RingSection as discussed
    • High coverage
    • Detailed example
    • Missing: unittests
  • RF bit broken
  • Modifications for induced voltage and related functionalities
  • No comments received yet
    • Simon can push if he wants
    • otherwise we come back to it next time

Alex: RF parameters

  • Codimd has a new list
  • Design and actual values: memory consumption?
    • Shall we calculate everything beforehand? or define what is the minimum set needed
    • Have additional parameters as properties
    • Use inheritance btw tracking/common repos
  • time of flight added
  • ALL: think about naming convention and add your comments to the codimd.
    • RFSystem/RFStation?
    • add also necessity to keep in memory

Brainstorming

  • After input parameters, re-discuss where to put the line between BLonD tracking and -common
