Workshop: Optimisation in Industry

This three-day event that will bring together graduate students, researchers and industry practitioners with an interest in solving industrial problems using mathematical programming techniques and algorithms.

The focus of the workshop will be on industrial problems solved successfully. The talks will clearly define the problems that had to be solved, explain their difficulty, and expose the solution “path” (with failures and successes), concluding with the delivered product. We will also discuss how real-world problems are approached: how does one get from the initial discussions and data to a full solution and a happy customer?
