Computing, understanding the behavior of concordance invariants obtained from knot Floer homology theories is quite central to the study of the concordance group and low-dimensional topology in general. In this talk, I will describe the method that allows us to compute the concordance invariant epsilon using combinatorial knot Floer homology and talk about some computational results. This is a joint work with S. Dey.
