Hello John,
Thanks for your reply.
I am currently going through some source codes. I find coding format and
platform syncing with me as I have done similar coding work in my intern.
I am playing with ASCEND software and running some example models. In
parallel, I am also going through solvers/ipopt codes, I am able to grasp
mathematics behind that through documentation. For PSO I am reading "*Enhanced
particle swarm optimization with gradient information" *paper.
I would love to work on parallel programming as I have done some online
courses and in part my academic curriculum. I will be in touch for guidance
in thermodynamics with Prof. Kannan Moudgalya whose work involves
integrating ASCEND with simulators.
Can you direct me to start on this in more detail?
Thanks once again!
Regards,
Dharmendra
