This in view of the LIU upgrade project for these accelerators. These studies require massive simulation over large number of turns. To this end we have been looking at all available codes and started collaborations on code development with several laboratories: pyORBIT from SNS, SYNERGIA from Fermilab, MICROMAP from GSI and our in-house MAD-X code with an space charge upgrade. We have agreed with our collaborators to bench-mark all these codes in the framework of the GSI bench-marking suite, in particular the main types of frozen space charge and PIC codes are being tested. We also include a study on the subclass of purely frozen and the adaptive frozen modes both part of MAD-X in comparison with the purely frozen MICROMAP code. Last, we will report on CERN's code development effort to understand and eventually overcome the noise issue in PIC codes.
