Maximal Software hosts regular workshop seminars on Optimization Modeling with MPL. Often these are scheduled in conjunction with OR conferences to lessen the need for travel. The purpose of the workshops is to provide participants with an insightful overview and give step-by-step instructions for successfully building optimization applications. Currently we have the following seminar scheduled:
The speakers for the workshop, have decades of experience in this field, will take you through all the steps of an optimization project using powerful optimization tools from Maximal Software, ILOG/IBM, GUROBI, MOPS, ARKI Consulting and Pinter Consulting.
Optimization technologies have become key tools in making important business decisions that increase competitive advantage. Optimization, through the use of advanced mathematics and computer science techniques, is used to assist organizations with solving their complex business problems in areas such as manufacturing, distribution, finance, and scheduling. The success of optimization projects depends on many different factors such as which modeling tools are used, integration with corporate data, and the selection of the most efficient solution algorithms available for the problem.
The workshops are designed to give the participants hands-on experience with industrial-strength optimization and modeling tools including:
The purpose of the workshop is to show how optimization models can be brought together into business applications. At the end of the workshop, the participants will be able to develop their own optimization models, link them to data sources and solve the models using state-of-the-art industrial-strength solvers. Participants will also acquire a good working knowledge on how to embed optimization models into applications.
By attending this workshop you will be able to:
