Description

I think our folder structure is a bit confusing.
Right now we have:

  • kernels
  • basekernels
  • mokernels

Whereas our data structure is :

  • Kernel
    • SimpleKernel
    • MOKernel

Should we have:

  • One folder compositekernels for kernels based on another kernel(s), TransformedKernel, ScaledKernel etc...
  • One folder for kernels all the standard kernels (we could consider having a subfolder for simplekernels
  • And keep the existing folder for mokernels

Research direction

No files, tests, or entry points are named. First inspect the existing kernels, basekernels, and mokernels folders and compare them with the Kernel, SimpleKernel, and MOKernel structure described here; done means agreeing on and applying a folder layout for composite kernels, standard kernels, and mokernels.
