ePIC Software & Computing Weekly Meeting: Metadata, Automated Productions, Genesis Mission

Wednesday 25 Mar 2026, 11:00 → 13:00 US/Eastern

Dmitrii Kalinkin (Brookhaven National Laboratory), Holly Szumila-Vance, Markus Diefenthaler (Jefferson Lab), Torre Wenaus (BNL)

We will discuss improvements to simulation production. Sakib and Stephen will follow up on discussions from last week’s ePIC and EIC Physics Readiness Workshop and present the current status and plans for metadata to improve discoverability of simulation productions. Torre will present the Physics Configuration System, which maps simulation requests from collaboration members into instructions for PanDA jobs. In addition, we will have an open discussion on ePIC-related proposals for the Genesis Mission that align with our priorities. 

We will use Zoom for the remote meeting:
