News, general matters, announcements
Pre-CHEP Workshop
Lots of people attending (~150+ registered), so switched from initial idea of group discussions to plenary style. Identified a list of topics and suitable speakers, with in-person presentations: indico agenda.
Google Summer of Code, 2023
Next steps:
- Final student proposals are due for April 4, i.e. next week.
Google Season of Docs, 2023
Submission by CVMFS project by Valentin and we are waiting.
Working Group Updates
General
After we finish all the WG presentations we should update the HSF Planning page, and advertise this and the WG mailing lists to the community.
Meetings
Reminder: Please try and book meetings in Indico at least 2 weeks in advance!
That way they go into the calendar early and they will be included in the weekly email announcement that goes to HSF Forum.
Software Training
C++ Course and Hands-on Training
Post-CHEP course still under preparation.
Detector Simulation
Updated web-page with convener information
In the process of organizing sessions on:
- Geant4 cut tuning as done by experiments (discussion with potential speakers started)
- Overview of external (not Geant4) physics model developments (invitation sent; no news)
- Geant4 hadronic physics models and connections with event generators (news: speaker identified, the talk to be scheduled sometime after CHEP)
There is a Geant4 technical forum 6.4.2023. All are welcome and virtual participation is possible.
Event Generators
Still need to organize the tuning tutorial and also the general physics generators workshop.
Frameworks
Still need to pin down CMSSW accelerator integration talk.
