Advanced tokamak regimes : Multi-machine comparison and prospects • Performance of advanced regime for steady-state operation • present status of AT in terms of performance vs steady-state capability • Map the existence domain of the Advanced scenario • Condition for ITB formation and sustainment • ITB definition (ITB criterion First/Second order transition ?) • key normalised quantities for controlling the ITB formation and sustainment: q-profile, ExB shearing rate, fuelling ... • Predictive transport modelling scan in q-profile (weak/reversed shear) and possibly add a scan in r*? • Open challenges to extrapolate the advanced scenarios • list of the open challenge in the context of the proposed international collaborative experiments X.
