401-5900-00LOptimization Seminar Information 0 credits1KR. Weismantel, R. Zenklusen
AbstractLectures on current topics in optimization
ObjectiveExpose graduate students to ongoing research acitivites (including applications) in the domain of otimization.
ContentThis seminar is a forum for researchers interested in optimization theory and its applications. Speakers are expected to stimulate discussions on theoretical and applied aspects of optimization and related subjects. The focus is on efficient algorithms for continuous and discrete optimization problems, complexity analysis of algorithms and associated decision problems, approximation algorithms, mathematical modeling and solution procedures for real-world optimization problems in science, engineering, industries, public sectors etc.
