Anita is planning a visit to Portland State University (PSU) in September to discuss possible collaboration projects. The collaboration between Halmstad University (HU) and PSU started a few years ago with Dan Hammerstrom as a guest researcher at HU. In order to strengthen the ties between both universities, a joint project was formulated. The initial idea was to use Acumen to model electric vehicle and smart grid components in Dan's electric vehicles course at PSU. After Dan moved to DARPA, he suggested Robert Bass be HU's link to PSU. Anita, Veronica, Dan and Robert had a Skype meeting at the beginning of August, and it was decided that Anita would pay a short visit to Robert at PSU to discuss the continuation of the project.
