Abstract not provided.
This report documents the strategies for verification and validation of the codes LSP and ICARUS used for simulating the operation of the neutron tubes used in all modern nuclear weapons. The codes will be used to assist in the design of next generation neutron generators and help resolve manufacturing issues for current and future production of neutron devices. Customers for the software are identified, tube phenomena are identified and ranked, software quality strategies are given, and the validation plan is set forth.
