   * **User aspect** - Asif, François will continue adopting the "user" point of view, extend i06c under the same conditions as before, in order to reach same conclusions as before but without the massive drift that we had. When insights from the "developer", team will be available, other tests will be performed to see if we can achieve reproducibility or not.   * **User aspect** - Asif, François will continue adopting the "user" point of view, extend i06c under the same conditions as before, in order to reach same conclusions as before but without the massive drift that we had.

 +===== 15 December 2015 =====
 +The **User aspect** experiments are launched. Ithaca's **i077** is now under way.
  
 +===== 17 December 2015 =====
 +François and Xavier agreed that it is necessary to perform several executions changing technical aspects. Ideally, the following aspects should be all evaluated, but it is not feasible to handle it, because combinations grow exponentially. So, the parameters to try are:
  
 +  * Compulsory:
 +    * Code optimization: -O2 and -O3
 +    * Regarding floating-point calculations: -fp-model [precise | strict]
 +    * Usage of -xHost flag (best instructions according to host machine)
 +    * Two processor combinations:
 +      * IFS 320 and NEMO 288
 +      * IFS 128 and NEMO 64
 +  * Optional:
 +    * Without -xHost
 +    * Try -fp-model source
 +    * Explore more processor combinations
 +
 +So, we should have 4 compulsory compilations:
 +  * -O2 -fp-model precise -xHost
 +  * -O2 -fp-model strict -xHost
 +  * -O3 -fp-model precise -xHost
 +  * -O3 -fp-model strict -xHost
 +
 +And consequently, 8 compulsory outputs.
 +
 +Additional considerations:
 +
 +  * Use last EC-Earth 3.2beta release
 +  * Enable key_mpp_rep
 +  * 1 month, writing every day
 +  * Use optimization to avoid mpi_allgather use at the northfold
