The abstract follows.

This talk discusses some interesting topics on scheduling and data
analytics of production, logistics and energy in the steel industry,
including: 1) production batching and scheduling in
steelmaking/continuous casting, and hot/cold rolling operations; 2)
logistics scheduling in storage/stowage, shuffling, transportation and
(un)loading operations; 3) energy optimization including energy
allocation, coordinated planning and scheduling of production and
energy; 4) data based analytics, including dynamic analytics of BOF
steelmaking process based on multi-stage modeling; temperature
prediction of blast furnace; temperature prediction of molten iron in
transportation process; energy analytics for estimation, prediction of
generation and consumption, diagnosis and benchmarking; temperature
prediction of reheat furnace based on mechanism and data; strip quality
analytics of continuous annealing based on multi-objective ensemble
learning; process monitoring and diagnosis of continuous annealing based
on mechanism and data.

The next seminar in our series will be given by Martin Skutella (TU
Berlin) "Efficient Algorithms and Provably Good Solutions for NP-hard
Scheduling Problems" and it will be held on Wednesday, May 12 at 13:00
UTC. For more details please visit https://schedulingseminar.com/

With kind regards

Zdenek, Mike and Guohua
