*:# '''Octave''': When I was at INRIA in France, I implemented a Godunov’s scheme to resolve stochastic conservation laws in modeling highway traffic. I started with the implementation of a deterministic method, fitting the parameters from real data gathered from a gps company. In this phase I learned to deal with data input and storage problems. In the second part of the project I modeled a stochastic version of the method with an optimized multidimensional Monte-Carlo approach, which gave me some expertise about computational optimization. | *:# '''Octave''': When I was at INRIA in France, I implemented a Godunov’s scheme to resolve stochastic conservation laws in modeling highway traffic.
