Linear and Integer Optimization with Applications
About
In this basic course in optimization you will use case studies, presented by researchers in different areas at Chalmers and the University of Gothenburg, to learn tools for practical modeling and solving optimization problems. You will learn the principles of mathematical modeling and how the properties of optimization models can be used in practical problem solving. You will model concrete optimization problems by yourself and analyze your model, choose an algorithm, implement it in software, and analyze your solutions.
