1. Marking up lattice QCD configurations and ensembles for ILDG Metadata Working Group P.Coddington, B.Joo, C.Maynard, D.Pleiter, T.Yoshie Working group members G.Andronico (INFN), P.Coddington (Adelaide), C.DeTar (Utah), R.Edwards (JLAB), B.Joo (JLAB), C.Maynard (Edinburgh), D.Pleiter (NIC/DESY), J.Simone (FNAL), T.Yoshie (Tsukuba) QCDml is an XML-based markup language designed for ILDG QCDml XML documents describe metadata of QCD ensembles and configurations in ILDG stored in ILDG Metadata Catalogue and searched by users QCDml schema define XML elements necessary for exchanging configurations provide standards of notation and terminology based on common community practices to ensure unique markup XML documents have to conform to schema markovChainURI unique name of the ensemble common in ensemble and config XML format: mc://Regional-Grid/......... dataLFN (data logical file name) unique name of the configuration translated by File Catalogue to an actual location of the file (SURL) format: lfn://Regional-Grid/......... markovStep has update : unique number of configuration, e.g. trajectory# series : distinguish different runs for the ensemble avePlaquette : used to check configuration integrity physics section X 28 Y 28 Z 28 T 56 use many blocks if coupling parameters are different e.g. Nf=2+1 case glossary explains detail of the action text, pdf, ps, xml, tex coupling parameters #flavours action example e.g. sqrt2kappa periodic Useful for describing the ensemble Dimensionless numbers only {' ampi ', ' amrho ‘, ' mpi_mrho ', ' ar0 ', ' ar1 ‘} observables (optional) link smearing (optional) optional link smearing block in all quark actions General procedure of link smearing –blocking of link variables by APE, HYP.... –projection to SU(3) (unitarization) by stout, invSqrt….. –repeat blocking and unitarization pair several times actions marked up note for sixLinkGluonActions : normalisation is given  for tadpole improved actions  for
