0008 The EICUG Software Working Group’s initial focus will be on
0009 simulations of physics processes and detector response to enable
0010 quantitative assessment of measurement capabilities and their physics
0011 impact. This will be pursued in a manner that is accessible,
0012 consistent, and reproducible to the EICUG as a whole.
0013
0014 It will embody simulations of all processes that make up the EIC
0015 science case as articulated in the white paper. The Software working
0016 group is to engage with new major initiatives that aim to further
0017 develop the EIC science case, including for example the upcoming INT
0018 program(s), and is anticipated to play key roles also in the
0019 preparations for the EIC project(s) and its critical decisions. The
0020 working group will build on the considerable progress made within the
0021 EIC Software Consortium (eRD20) and other efforts. The evaluation or
0022 development of experiment-specific technologies, e.g. mass storage,
0023 clusters or other, are outside the initial scope of this working group
0024 until the actual experiment collaborations are formed.
0025
0026 The working group will be open to all members of the EICUG to work on
0027 EICUG related software tasks. It will communicate via a new [mailing
0028 list](mailto:eicug-software@eicug.org) and organize regular online and
0029 in-person meetings that enable broad and active participation from
0030 within the EICUG as a whole.
