abstract = "The main challenge of the reverse (or adjoint) mode of automatic differentiation
(AD) is providing the accurate values of required variables to the derivative code. We discuss
different strategies to tackle this challenge. The ability to generate efficient adjoint code is
crucial for handling large scale applications. For challenging applications, efficient adjoint code
must provide at least a fraction of the values of required variables through recomputations, but it
is essential to avoid unnecessary recomputations. This is achieved by the Efficient Recomputation
Algorithm implemented in the Tangent linear and Adjoint Model Compiler and in Transformation of
Algorithms in Fortran, which are source-to-source translation AD tools for Fortran programs. We
describe the algorithm and discuss possible improvements.",
