Working group goals
To improve the quality and robustness of GEANT4 code at mutliple levels.
This includes
- System integration testing,
-
Monitoring computing performance and
benchmarking; at regular intervals a set of applications is used to check for CPU
performance and for memory use.
Results are documented.
- Physics validation;
at regular intervals a set of typical, but simplified HEP calorimeters
are used to monitor calorimeter response observables for relevant
primary particles over a wide range of energies.
Explicitely excluded is verification of physics performance for physics
processes, this is the responsibility of the physics working groups.
