Throughput Computing at Work: Reports from the Field

Speaker

Description

HTCondor was used to develop DPSOL, a framework for solving dynamic programming problems. It was the foundation for DSICE which merged dynamic and stochastic factors in economics and the climate, and analyzed the social cost of carbon, the cost of a two-degree target and the value of carbon capture and sequestration.
