DFG Research Center MATHEON |
Lecture hall on the ground floor
The aim of this workshop is to share the experiences of Matheon members with software to solve optimization problems, and to give an overview of packages currently in use and under development.
Usually any complex software like optimization packages have a relative high entrance barrier which can be lowered by hints from experienced users.
In the talks of about 15 minutes length the software purpose and interface should be be explained and its use illustrated with short examples.
