PySA, a powerful tool for solving optimization problems(ARC-18893-1)

PySA is a powerful tool for solving optimization problems. It uses different numerical techniques (including, for example, parallel-tempering, annealed importance sampling and path-integral monte carlo) and it has been specifically designed to run on HPC clusters. It also offers a user-friendly interface to allowing users with any background to use PySA, without any prior knowledge of high-performance computing.
