QuantLib - XAD Integration Repository
As a demonstrator of integration of the XAD automatic differentation tool with real-world code, the latest release of QuantLib is AAD-enabled with XAD. The performance achieved on sample applications is many-fold superior to what has been reported previously with other tools. This demonstrates production quality use of the XAD library in a code-base of several hundred thousand lines.
This repository contains integration headers, examples, and tests required for this integration. It is not usable stand-alone.

License
Due to the nature of this repository, two different licenses have to be used for different part of the code-base. The tests and examples folders are containing code taken and modified from QuantLib where the QuantLib license applies. The ql folder contains adaptor modules for XAD, where the GNU AGPL applies. This is clearly indicated by having separate license files in each folder.
