Two-Day Workshop on
"MIXED-INTEGER NONLINEAR OPTIMIZATION METHODS FOR ENERGY SYSTEMS
ENGINEERING"
(http://www.or.rwth-aachen.de/minomese2015)
March 9-10, 2015, RWTH Aachen University, Aachen, Germany
Description
-----------
The OPTIMIZATION-BASED DESIGN OF ENERGY SYSTEMS generally leads to
mixed-integer nonlinear programming (MINLP) problems. In recent years, a
surge of interest in (non-convex) MINLP problems in the mathematical
optimization community produced remarkable algorithmic progress and
triggered new developments, in particular new implementations.
To benefit most from these advances, ENGINEERS AND MATHEMATICIANS should
tie up, each contributing their own expertise. Aim of this workshop is
to bring together researchers from both fields to learn about the latest
work and to foster collaborations.
The workshop consists of INVITED TALKS on recent work, complemented by
THREE KEYNOTES delivered by the following distinguished speakers.
Invited Speakers
----------------
* Prof. Dr. Zdravko Kravanja, University of Maribor, Slovenia: "Robust
MINLP for solving complex synthesis problems"
* Prof. Dr. Jeffrey T. Linderoth, University of Wisconsin-Madison, USA:
"Theory of MINLPs"
* Dr. Stefan Vigerske, GAMS Software GmbH, Zuse Institute Berlin: "MINLP
Solver Technology"
Organization
------------
The number of participants is limited to 60. Registration to the
workshop is required. The fee amounts to 50 Euro (incl. lunch and coffee
& tea). See the workshop website at
