DOI:https://doi.org/10.2172/1657095· OSTI ID:1657095
For all X Computational Physics Division (XCP) software under the Associate Laboratory Directorate for Weapons Physics (ALDX), the Weapons Research Services Secure Networks and Assurance Group (WRS-SNA) manages the software quality assurance (SQA) plan, requirements and guidance with respect to development processes and tools to meet the broader LANL SQA requirements. Each XCP software product is categorized into one of three software types: Safety Software, Non-Safety Risk Significant Software, and Non-Safety Commercially Controlled Software. In 2018, using LANL Form 2033, the MCNP6 code was categorized by the XCP division as Non-Safety Commercially Controlled Software, provided in Appendix A. Using WRSFORM- 0001U, the MCNP6 code was graded as a Medium Impact software product, provided in Appendix B. Given these determinations, the WRS-AD-0010U SQA plan is followed for all MCNP6 developments, documentation and code releases.
