DVD has 40 files and many of them are folders. On July 13-14 2004 the Caltech ASC Level 1 Center hosted an ASC TriLab V&V Workshop in La Jolla CA to discuss and compare what the NNSA laboratories and the ASC Level 1 University Centers are learning with respect to code verification and validation. About 50 people participated in the workshop. Presentations were organized into four sessions and moderated by key V&V personnel from the NNSA labs and ASC Centers: 1 V&V Program Overviews Jamileh Soudah ASC HQ - Chair 2 Code and Solution Verification Tomek Plewa University of Chicago Flash Center - Chair 3 Validation Experiments Dan Meiron Caltech ASC Center - Chair 4 Validation and Uncertainty Quantification Tony Giunta Sandia - Chair The workshop began with V&V overviews presented by speakers from Los Alamos Lawrence Livermore and Sandia National Laboratories and the ASC Level 1 Alliance Centers at Caltech the University of Chicago the University of Illinois Stanford University and the University of Utah. These baseline presentations were followed by talks addressing approaches and lessons learned in code and solution verification designing and implementing validation experiments and what has been accomplished and remains to be done in uncertainty qualification. At the end of the workshop Dan Meiron Caltech hosted a discussion to summarize commonalities across the lab and university programs and identify collaborative efforts that might follow this workshop.

At the end of the workshop Dan Meiron Caltech hosted a discussion to summarize commonalities across the lab and university programs and identify collaborative efforts that might follow this workshop. The purpose of this document is to provide a synopsis of the key issues discussed during the workshop. The intent is not to review the substance of the technical presentations which are available from the Caltech V&V Workshop web site and CD but to provide a record of the important issues raised during the workshop discussion and interaction. Input for this synopsis comes primarily from the summary session moderated by Dan Meiron and notes taken during the course of the workshop sessions.

The War Production Board WPB was an agency of the United States government that supervised war production during World War II. President Franklin D. Roosevelt established it in January 1942 with Executive Order 9024. The WPB replaced the Supply Priorities and Allocations Board and the Office of Production Management. The WPB directed conversion of companies engaged in activities relevant to war from peacetime work to war needs allocated scarce materials established priorities in the distribution of materials and services and prohibited nonessential production. It rationed such commodities as gasoline heating oil metals rubber paper and plastics. It was dissolved shortly after the defeat of Japan in 1945 and was replaced by the Civilian Production Administration in late 1945. In 1942-1945 WPB supervised the production of $183 billion equivalent to $2.12 trillion in 2020 worth of weapons and supplies about 40 percent of the world output of munitions. The UK the USSR and other allies produced an additional 30 percent while the Axis produced only 30 percent. One fourth of the US output was warplanes; one fourth was warships. Meanwhile the civilian standard of living was about level. The WPB and the nation's factories effected a great turnaround. Military aircraft production which totaled 6000 in 1940 jumped to 85000 in 1943. Factories that made silk ribbons now produced parachutes automobile factories built tanks typewriter companies converted to rifles undergarment manufacturers sewed mosquito netting and a rollercoaster manufacturer converted to the production of bomber repair platforms. The WPB ensured that each factory received the materials it needed to produce the most war goods in the shortest time. Executive Order 9638 created the Civilian Production Administration and terminated the War Production Board on October 4 1945. The Civilian Production Board was consolidated with other agencies to form the Office of Temporary Controls—an agency in the Office for Emergency Management of the executive office of the president. The latter had previously been established pursuant to the Reorganization Act of 1939. The executive order provided a Temporary Controls Administrator appointed by the president to head the Office of Temporary Controls and vested in him among other things the functions of the Price Administrator.
