Goals of Workshop
• Get quantitative input (metrics) on how a given LSST schedule performs for specific science cases
• First step towards optimizing the ultimate LSST cadence
• Get ideas for further cadence strategy exploration, constrained by boundary conditions of hardware and key science cases

Schedule: Monday AM
• Metrics Analysis Framework tutorial session– For those who want to turn work on quantitative
input (metrics) to cadence into software that can be attached automatically to Operations Simulator runs

Schedule: Tuesday I.
• Cadence Workshop plenary: introduction; how LSST will be scheduled; cadence simulations; constraints, trade-offs, and metrics; breakout group organization

Schedule: Tuesday II.• Static science and Transients & Variables parallel
breakout sessions– Static science (Tony Tyson & Michael Strauss) topics will
include Large Scale Structure (Hu Zhan), Weak Lensing (Deborah Bard), Stellar Populations (Carl Grillmair), and Evolution of Galaxies (Michael Cooper)
– T&V (Steve Howell) topics will include Astrometry (John Gizis and Michael Liu), Fast T&Vs (Mansi Kasliwal and Lucianne Walkowicz), Slow T&Vs (Ashish Mahabal and John Thorstensen), Supernovae (Alex Kim and Michael Wood-Vasey), and Moving Objects (Lori Allen and Eric Christensen)

Schedule: Wednesday
• Static science and Transients & Variables parallel breakout sessions continue
• Parallel breakout sessions on:– Optimizing the Main Survey/Thinking Outside the
Box (Zeljko Ivezic and Jason Kalirai)– Mini-survey cadences, including topics on the
Galactic Bulge and Plane (Will Clarkson), the Magellanic Clouds (Kathy Vivas), and the Commissioning Program (Chuck Claver or alternate)
