McTAO and COMMANDS have been awarded an AMDT (Action Mutualisée de DéveloppemenT) funding of two years to develop a common interface for Hampath and BOCOP. This AMDT, coined ct for "Control tools" is to start in January 2019. Our midterm goal is to set the standard for the numerical resolution of optimal control problems. On the basis of the two well established codes BOCOP and Hampath from the optimal control community, thanks to this ADT we want to design a high-level modular architecture in order to:

• interoperate BOCOP and Hampath,

• offer a high-level common user interface for the two codes.

Another expected outcome of the ADT is to integrate state of the art processes into the development of the two solvers (collaborative dev tools, reliable repositories, continuous integration...)
