Combinatorial optimization has many applications in industry, such as vehicle routing, PCB design, production planning, network design, and so on. One of the applications is getting satisfactory output out of industrial placement machines. In this talk we will see how some of the techniques you learn in your classes on algorithms and optimization are applied in this real-world setting. We encounter a couple of interesting challenges and point to a few algorithms and techniques that we can use to tackle these.
Please contact the organizing party or the board (cib@gewis.nl) with any questions, concerns or if you are unable to attend after the deadline for unsubscribing has passed. Have fun!
