Iclouds project report Pavel Senin Supervisors: Dr. Kim Binsted Dr. Jacqueline Keane Other people who played significant role: Dr. Philip Johnson Dr. Kyungim Baek Dr. Will Gersch
Goals 1.Capstone project for my Master degree. 2.Explore the fields of Astrobiology and Astrochemistry. 3.Learn something new in the MCMC, random processes and stochastic optimization. 4.Get real-life experience with Java software engineering. 5.Got to the conference?
Results
It takes time To explore the new field and methods, to learn the LaTeX, to learn how to plot. It takes even more when it comes to writing. The Reversible Jump MCMC wrapped by the Simulating annealing? Got my project in Dr. Baek “Pattern Classification” class.
Development, coding progress Original code: ~600 lines Java code: ~ lines (and growing…)
Development, code quality I kept code: Clean Commented Well, Covered
It samples
It does gigabytes of numbers
It plots
It works… D case…?
Finish computational results section in writing. Mock the coupling. Got the gas phase coded as the parallel thread. Release code to the public. To Do and future work.
