Managers: Sébastien FOLIO (CMA MINES ParisTech)

Sébastien FOLIO has developed an archiving and monitoring tool of versions of the Markal/TIMES mathematical models used by CMA lecturers and researchers. This tool notably allows the creation of a centralised database grouping together all models and results generated during studies conducted at the laboratory.

The purpose of this database is twofold:

• To enable the models to be durable so they can be used as a base for other research team members;
• To enable the research of older results and to make possible revisions to papers submitted for publication on the one hand and complete new studies and thus compare more data on the other.This tool will simplify the back-up and re-exploitation of the centre’s models while allowing the different work realised by the research team to be pooled.
