The CoDR is conducted at the end of the concept phase. The aim of the
CoDR is to confirm that the ‘problem’ has been thoroughly explored and
is well understood. Candidate technologies, technology trends,
technology options, the status of work already done and still planned
by precursors, design studies and other pathfinder arrays is reviewed
at this point.
The Review is of documents that detail the work done over the
duration of the study. The presentations are intended to guide the
Panel in their review of the work and to provide a platform for
clarification.
Observers are invited for the purposes of Project wide co-ordination
and dissemination of Project products. An opportunity will be provided
for observers to review CoDR documents and provide written feedback
both before and immediately after the review sessions. As the sessions
themselves take the form of presentations for the benefit of the Panel
and time is limited, we ask that Observer comments be written so that
maximum time is available for Panel questions to be answered.
