The course is designed to provide engineering students a view of optimization as a tool for engineering decision making. Students will be given a fundamental introduction to the optimization ...

Without these computer-based optimization tools, it would be difficult to find the most reasonable option." The optimization program uses data on "resistance to movement" for each species, a ...

A line of engineering research seeks to develop computers that can tackle a class of challenges called combinatorial ...

This article addresses the issue of kriging-based optimization of stochastic simulators. Many of these simulators depend on factors that tune the level of precision of the response, the gain in ...
