  • Developing a new grid validation web interface and integrating Geant4 tests into this system(Dmitri)
• 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 (Soon,Krzysztof, Daniel)
  • Finishing the migration from the FAST profiler to Open|SpeedShop(Soon, Krzysztof, Daniel)
  • Adding new IF related application(s) (Soon,Krzysztof,Daniel)
  • 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)
• Carry over from 2016 on the ARM inclusion in CDash (Andrea)
