Uncertainty and individual discretion in allocating research funds
… the Advanced Research Projects Agency-Energy (ARPA-E), we describe how a portfolio of projects selected by individual discretion differs from a portfolio of projects selected by traditional peer review. We show that ARPA-E program directors prefer to fund proposals with greater disagreement …

Essays on managing innovation
… or exploration among grant recipients at ARPA-E. We use internal data from ARPA-E project selection and quarterly performance reviews to show how active project management enables risk mitigation across a portfolio of projects. In the fourth chapter, we consider a set of decisions made by …

Scalable, repeatable, and contention-free parallelization of traffic simulation
Tripod is a project funded by ARPA-E and partly carried on by the Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) Lab at MIT that aims to promote more energy efficient travel options by offering commuters incentives to make smart travel choices. These incentives depend on the current network state, and …

An OpenDSS implementation of a generic municipal microgrid for co-simulation
This thesis provides a summary of the development process of a microgrid simulation model using OpenDSS software, as well as simulations and co-simulations using said model. Many power system research problems may be solved via the deployment simulations. However, for real-world problems he …
