Summary of Group Activities

I have been using the cluster for less than a year because I am a new faculty member. I am expecting to increase the usage this academic year (2013-2014).

I am a new faculty member in Economics and I am transitioning to the DLX cluster. In the last years, I have been using supercomputers at the University of Illinois and the University of Oklahoma.

I plan to start using the cluster on all the projects listed below as early as Fall 2013.

List of projects, use, etc

I am currently working on the projects listed below. It is very likely that I will use the cluster in first six projects, although I cannot determine precisely which one and exactly when I am going to work on them. I expect to use the cluster in the other project too.

Penalized Quantile Regression Estimator for a Model with Endogenous Individual Effects (with M. Harding (Stanford University)
Penalized Forecasting in Panel Data Models: Predicting Household Electricity Demand from Smart Meter Data (with M. Harding (Stanford University)
Latent Structure and Quantiles of the Treatment Effect Distribution (with E. Battistin and E. Rettore (University of Padova, Italy)
A Quantile Regression Analysis of the Survival of Entrants Firms in the Road Construction Industry (with G. Kosmopoulou (University of Oklahoma) and D. De Silva (Lancaster University, England)
A Panel Data Quantile Regression Analysis of the Immigrant Earnings Distribution in the United Kingdom and United States
Panel Quantile Regression
Industry-Wide Work Rules and Productivity: Evidence from Argentine Union Contract Data
Price Adjustment Policies and Firm Size: An Empirical Analysis of Bidding and Survival in the Market (with G. Kosmopoulou University of Oklahoma)
