2016 CHALLENGE WORKSHOP
Mathematical Modeling, Simulation and Optimization in Food Industries
The 8th Challenge Workshop focused on food and the corresponding industrial processes. It took place at Trier University on March 17-18, 2016.
Organizers
- Alfio Borzi (University of Würzburg)
- Anja Milde (KoMSO)
- Achim Rosch (Dienstleistungszentrum Ländlicher Raum (DLR) Mosel, Bernkastel-Kues)
- Volker Schulz (Trier University)
- Kai Velten (Hochschule Geisenheim University)
- Christian von Wallbrunn (Hochschule Geisenheim University)
- Michael Zänglein (Bayerische Landesanstalt für Weinbau und Gartenbau (LWG), Veitshöchheim)
- Supported by BMBF
Challenges
Food is a daily aspect of life. Thus, every mathematical modeling, simulation and optimization (MMSO) result will have immediate impact on society. The industrial production and handling of food poses interesting and challenging mathemetical questions of non-standard nature. The aim of this workshop was to discuss a variety of mathematical apsects in food industry and to find out possibilites for future cooperation. These range from modeling, simulation and optimization of growth and microbial activity over food preocessing with aromatic facets up to logistics of distribution.
