The [[Media:Dan_Partridge_proposal.pdf|project]] aims to optimize the runtime performance of a largangian cloud parcel model. It is planned for this code to be embedded in the ECHAM6.1-HAM2.2 in a novel approach of modeling cloud microphysics within a global climate model.

Project objectives:
* Complete detailed profiling of the cloud parcel model code
* Analyze the cloud parcel model code to identify code sections and routines to be further evaluated for performance optimization.
* Propose a set of recommendations for code changes based on the performance analysis.
* Make code changes identified to be very fast to implement based on the profiling results.
* Evaluate whether openmp parallelisation should be feasible and how much work that would entail.
