TU Dortmund proudly announces 3 lectures and a one 1-day course by Prof. Ignacio Grossmann, Carnegie-Mellon University, USA, which will take place on February 4th, 5th, 11th and 12th, 2019.

Ignacio Grossmann, Carnegie Mellon University

Ignacio E. Grossmann is the R. R. Dean University Professor of Chemical Engineering at Carnegie Mellon, and member of the „Center for Advanced Process Decision-making” and member of the National Academy of Engineering. His research interests are in mixed-integer, disjunctive and stochastic programming, energy systems, and planning and...

Mathematical modeling of aspects of cardiac physiology, such as elastomechanics, electrophysiology and flow, has seen tremendous advances during the last years. The coupling of two or more of these physics to an integrated heart model remains challenging, though, due to differing temporal and spatial scales and various ways of interaction. In this workshop, we want to address the following questions: Which coupling scenarios are relevant for certain use cases (e.g. during a physiological heart beat or in disease modeling)? What are appropriate models to describe the coupling and methods to...

The I Conference on Transfer between Mathematics & Industry [CTMI 2019] aims the promotion and dissemination of the mathematical tools of Statistics & Big Data and MSO (Modelling, Simulation and Optimization) and its industrial applications, the promotion of new research lines oriented to the needs of the industry and the society in general, the renewal of curricula in this field and at all educational levels and the industry-academia collaboration internationalization.
The Objectives/Goals set to achieve at the CTMI 2019 are:

• To show the extent in which

The first joint IBOSS-ECMath workshop on optimization methods in healthcare took place on 18.-19. October 2018 at the Zuse Institute Berlin (ZIB). It was organized and supported by ECMath and the MODAL AG.

The research project Information-Based Optimization of Surgery Schedules (IBOSS) aims at developing fast algorithms to optimize for more efficient resource utilization in daily operating room schedules at hospitals. IBOSS is carried out by three research institutions: ZIB, Freie Universität Berlin and the University of Paderborn each contribute with their individual expertise. The...

The healthcare sector is globally growing, in quantity and complexity. Hence, conventional planning becomes a much more challenging task. Novel advances ask for highly specialized optimization methods to improve the efficiency of current healthcare systems.

The 1st IBOSS-ECMath workshop "Optimization Methods in Healthcare" aims to connect people that work in this intersecting fields of operations research and process planning in healthcare. We will present computational optimization methods for different healthcare planning problems and discuss how we can make them...
