OASIS Deliverables
- Address requests for support, improvement, and new features by current and potential applications such as XGC and WarpX as well as other users of ParaView, VisIt, and Ascent.
- Strengthen operation of VTK-m on Aurora.
- Improve documentation with automatic generation and web deployment.
- Ensure proper building and running at OLCF, ALCF, and NERSC through Spack.
VTK-m Releases
We are due for releasing VTK-m 2.1.1 and 2.2.0. Need some post-ECP organization for this.
When branches are ready, send email to Vicente to do a release. CC Berk; he has a case number to use for this.
Viskores / HPSF
We need to formalize the Technical Steering Committee (TSC). We said this would be the PI's from the ECP project. This would be:
- Kenneth Moreland
- Berk Geveci
- Ollie Lo
- David Pugmire
- Mark Bolstad
- Hank Childs
We need to make sure all everyone is still on board to be part of the TSC. Changes to the TSC can happen through voting.
We need a plan for moving from VTK-m to Viskores. People are already starting to ask about the new name, so we should pull together something soon and have a plan forward. Funding might be a little iffy as well.
Roundtable
Dave working with Jeff on ANARI rendering. Jeff has sent Dave some boilerplate ANARI backend, and Dave is looking into hook into the backend.
