CT Roadmapping Workshop (Action Required)
Dear IPSC and FMM leads, and all, I've mentioned our plan to hold the CT Roadmapping Workshop in Chattanooge just before the Spring PI meeting. Please see below for a description of the workshop. I need your help in order to line up all of the participants, so please see the two action items below for IPSC leads (one for FMM). I would like to have 1-2 representatives per IPSC, and also FMM attend to present some background material on their program element and participate in the breakouts to help us understand the program's CT needs in more detail, and how they might be implemented most effectively. Representatives of the other program elements are welcome to attend if they want, but I expect the impacts of the workshop on your work will be at most second order, through the IPSCs and FMM. ACTION ITEM: would the IPSC and FMM leads please send me names and emails of 1-2 representatives of your team who are able to attend the meeting on the chosen dates. DEADLINE: COB Friday 4 March. We have a handle on a group of industry representatives, which we're lining up via the ID/IQ contract. I also need your help in identifying 1-2 representatives from your more immediate customer base, within the DOE complex. Please note that to be most effective, we're looking for people who appreciate what NEAMS is bringing to the table, but are also close enough to the M&S needs in their area that they can provide concrete input on how to most effectively transfer the tools and technology we're developing. ACTION ITEM: would the IPSC leads please send me the names and emails of 1-2 representatives of your DOE complex user community. I will issue joint invitations (from me and the IPSC lead) to attend the workshop. If they can't make the meeting dates, we'll have to iterate. DEADLINE: COB Friday 4 March. Please let me know if you have any questions or concerns. Thanks, db -- NEAMS Capability Transfer Roadmapping Workshop 4-5 April 2011, Chattanooga, TN (Dates and location to be confirmed) Organized By David E. Bernholdt, Oak Ridge National Laboratory NEAMS Capability Transfer Lead [email protected] with Jim Peltz, Dept. of Energy Program Manager for NEAMS Common Methods and Tools [email protected] and Keith Bradley, Argonne National Laboratory National Technical Directory for NEAMS [email protected] Charter The NEAMS Capability Transfer (CT) program element is tasked with facilitating the transfer of NEAMS-developed tools and technologies, primarily originating from the four Integrated Performance and Safety Codes (IPSCs) and also the Fundamental Methods and Models (FMM) program, to a broader community of users. The purpose of this workshop is to bring together representatives from the IPSC and FMM teams and representatives of the user community to discuss the capabilities that NEAMS is developing and what mechanisms and forms of outreach would be most useful and effective in making these capabilities accessible and useful to the user community. We expect the discussions to range from capabilities of interest, timelines, and how to most effectively make NEAMS tools part of user's work flows; to mechanisms for interactions and feedback from users; to possible needs for training or more individualized support of users. The current plan for the workshop is to begin with short introductions to NEAMS and different elements of the program, as well as some background presentations on how other DOE programs and projects of similar scope and size have approached their capability transfer needs. We then plan a set of breakout sessions, by IPSC area, to allow the discussions to be focused on the specific needs of each area. Following the breakout sessions, we will reconvene the whole, hear reports from the breakout groups and discuss the common and distinctive needs and ideas that have emerged. Finally, we will make an initial sketch of a roadmap to respond to the goals and needs expressed by the user community. Following the workshop, the CT lead, in consultation with the IPSC and FMM teams, will flesh out the sketch into a full roadmap report recommending an appropriately staged plan to implement a Capability Transfer program for the NEAMS program. This report is to be delivered to NEAMS management by 30 June 2011, and a draft will be circulated to workshop participants before then for comment. Expectations for User Community Representatives While highly valuing your input, we also wish to minimize our demands on your valuable time. Our intent is to focus your involvement on the two-day face-to-face workshop. To prepare for the meeting, we anticipate holding a teleconference of at most 1.5 hours and provide some advance reading material taking at most 1-2 hours. As followup, we will invite you to comment on the draft roadmap report once it is ready, again at most 1-2 hours. We certainly hope that you will find the meeting useful and may want to pursue other followup discussions, perhaps with the IPSC and FMM teams, but that will be beyond the scope of this workshop. At present, we ask that you try to reserve two full days for the workshop, though if the details of the agenda permit, we will attempt to reduce it to 1.5 days. One purpose of advance teleconference will be to discuss the workshop agenda in more detail and determine the extent to which proprietary concerns might stifle open discussion. While we believe that the overall goals of this workshop will be best served by open discussion between the NEAMS developers and the user community, we can adapt the agenda to provide for more private discussions if that will maximize the information exchange. Expectations for NEAMS Participants We will be asking the IPSC and FMM representatives to make short presentations about their work and plans. If the rest of the agenda permits, we will have a NEAMS-internal wrapup session following the close of the general session. You will also be consulted as the roadmap report is developed and asked to review the final draft. -- David E.

A friendly reminder that the IPSC teams had two action items, due today. So far, I've heard from Fuels on one of the two, and from FMM on their one item. If you can't get the needed answers by today, please let me know when you do expect to have them, so I won't have to come chase you down.
