CAMP (Code Applications and Maintenance Program) is the largest research program conducted under the auspices of the federal nuclear Administrative Commission of the US NRC (Nuclear Regulatory Commission) since 1993. In the context of the research program CAMP the development and exchange of experience on system software RELAP5 and TRACE, neutronics program PARCS and graphical interface SNAP take place. In the CAMP program, on the basis of an agreement with US NRC, are currently working over 40 organizations from 28 countries. Coordinator for Slovenia is the "Jožef Stefan" Institute (JSI) (in addition to JSI, Krško Nuclear Power Plant and the Slovenian Nuclear Safety Administration are participating).

Autumn meeting of the CAMP was divided into two parts, namely the technical and programing part. In the technical work representative of the US NRC presented the status of the development of US NRC computer programs RELAP5, TRACE, PARCS and SNAP. This was followed by seven CAMP member states' reports (Finland, Mexico, Poland, Slovenia, Sweden, Switzerland and Ukraine) and 15 technical contributions. JSI presented the report " Status of CAMP Activities in Slovenia " from the authors Andrej Prošek and Ovidiu Adrian Berar. Within the programming part of CAMP work meeting the need for further development of system software for simulation of nuclear installations and suggestions of in-kind contributions that are required for all participants in the CAMP (Slovenia one contribution per year) was discussed. IJS has proposed an in-kind contribution for 2016 entitled "RELAP5 and TRACE calculations of LOCA in PWR", which was endorsed by the technical program committee.

This year's autumn meeting of CAMP, which took place from November 4th – 6th 2015 in Gettysburg, USA, was organized by the US NRC. The meeting was attended by 53 representatives from 14 countries, of which two via video conference, 21 from the host country and 15 from Korea. Dr. Andrej Prošek from the Reactor Engineering Division of JSI attended the meeting.
