Q/A monitoring with Valgrind and Coverity and general testing/debugging (Gabriele)
Perform regular profiling benchmarking of G4 development and public
releases (Julia, Soon, Krzysztof)
Support, Maintenance and Developments
System testing shifts
Maintain and support integration testing (Gunter)
Release testing
Maintain nightly testing setup (Gunter)
General testing/debugging (Gabriele)
Q/A monitoring with Valgrind and Coverity (Gabriele)
Geant4 version test, physics validation, etc., by comparing the modeling results
from experiments conducted by our institute (Eunju)
Performance profiling and benchmarking
Regular profiling/benchmarking of Geant4 development and public
releases, maintenance and evolution of the profiling
infrastructure in response to the changing computing environment
(Julia, Soon, Krzysztof)
Adding of the profiling of new applications as needed and possible (Julia, Soon)
Consulting on the use of performance tools and interpretation of
the results as well as evaluating the performance gain of
various code improvements/ideas (Canal)
Research and develop on profiling using GPU machine (Kiheyon, Kyungho)
Testing Geant4 applications using KISTI-5 and KISTI-6 supercomputer (Kiheyon, Kyungho)
Profiling and validation of the low energy physics by modeling experimental data (Eunju)
Adding testing of the computing performance of photon/phonon simulations (if the situation allows) (Eunju)
Geant4 speed-up study based on IBS High Performance Computing (Kihong)
Profiling and validation of the low energy physics (Kihong)
Improving the speed and interactivity of Geant4 visualizations on remote machines (Kihong)
Continue to encourage the collaboration to provide more tests and more rigorous tests (All)
