This report by Yoshifumi Nakamura for the QCDSF Collaboration provides insights on lattice QCD simulations with 2+1 flavors of dynamical quarks. Motivated by real-world scenarios with 6 flavors, the project aims to improve hadron and quark masses, weak matrix elements, and moments of generalized distributions. The action involves improved gauge and fermion actions, UV filtering for better chiral properties, and advanced algorithms like even-odd preconditioning and multi-mass preconditioning. The project's performance on Altix and BGL systems is at around 20-25% of peak, showcasing promising developments for future tests and idea implementations.
