About me

This is Dave's old page. Most of the stuff on it was so old there was no sense hosting it anymore, so only a few entertaining bits are left.

Computery Projects

Name Description
At-Ats This was a home grown project to create a free, open-source replacement for the popular statistics package, Stata. It didn't do 1% of what Stata does, but it did do most of what you'll see in a basic econometrics class. Hasn't been worked on since 2008.

Projects from Classes

Name Description
Residential Photovoltaic Rate Simulator This is a web-interface to an analytical tool that can be used to estiamte how much you can save on your power bill if you install a photovoltaic system. The analysis was done for the ER226 class at UC Berkeley, in preparation of this paper on photovoltaics combined with plug-in hybrids. The work we did on the analysis was too good to throw away after the paper, so I made this on-line version people can play with.

Random Hobby Stuff
