Science Analysis Software is performed primarily at Stanford, GSFC, U Washington, NRL, IN2P3 (France), INFN (Italy), and Hiroshima and ISAS in Japan. Richard Dubois (SLAC) is the subsystem manager. Toby Burnett of U Washington is instrumental in acting as code architect. Heather Kelly at GSFC oversees the low level analysis tools and infrastructure. Seth Digel at GSFC oversees the development of high level science analysis tools. Karl Young at SLAC is managing the development of the Data Production Facililty prototype as well as developing the Code Release Management tools. NRL and France contribute CAL subsystem code; SLAC and Italy contribute TKR code; and GSFC contributes ACD code. Italy oversees the Event Display and GEANT4 simulation package work, while Japan is responsible for the physics models of particle fluxes.

Communication is key. Our group is geographically dispersed, so we maximize our connectivity by
static use of the web, with a central software home page gathering up information on projects, status, meetings, etc. Everything we do can be seen from http://www-glast.slac.stanford.edu/software.
web conferencing: our meetings are all held via CERN's VRVS system, with weekly general and core meetings and meetings as needed for the subsystems. Minutes and presentations are archived as well.
instant messaging: we use the ICQ IM tool to facilitate chat and quick online point-to-point contact.
we hold three software workshops per year, wherein all areas of software are discussed, including detailed reviews of projects.
between the general workshops, we hold working meetings of the core group.
