SAS4A/SASSYS-1 is a software simulation tool used to perform deterministic analysis of anticipated events as well as design basis and beyond design basis accidents for advanced nuclear reactors. This report summarizes recent tasks to modernize the SAS4A/SASSYS-1 code system to improve internal data management and to update the code documentation to reflect recent code developments. The motivation for performing these updates stems from the relevance of SAS4A/SASSYS-1 to a number of U.S. Department of Energy programs as well as domestic and international collaborations.
