= Question for the Developper committee = == Strategic questions == • transition from a vector optimised code with reasonable mpp performances to a mpp optimised code with reasonable vector performances. '''Agreement ?''' • switch to dynamical allocation '''Agreement ?''' • vvl case as the default option : introduction of a key_linssh for linear free surface (=constant volume) '''Agreement ?''' • embedded sea ice default. Levitating case as namelist option '''Agreement ?''' • Off Line priority ? == Open questions == • How to manage sea-ice in mpp : introduce another domain decomposition for sea-ice? How is it done in CICE? • surf module en stand Alone? both to have stand alone bulk and stand alone sea-ice model. • unequal i-j partition? • time splitting at high latitudes to save ~20-30% of a global high resolution configuration? • space averaged output for very high resolution configurations?
