Apologies for cross-sending
Dear colleagues,
We are pleased to bring you the following workshops,
Optimisation Series: Business Applications of Optimisation, Stochastic
Programming and Portfolio Planning
* Introduction to Optimisation and its Applications: Linear & Integer
Programming - Embedded DSS using SCRIPTING and COM Objects,
16 - 17 October, CARISMA, Brunel University
* Decision Making under Uncertainty: Stochastic Programming,
18 - 19 October, CARISMA, Brunel University
* Financial Planning Using Integer Quadratic Programming,
20 October, CARISMA, Brunel University
The workshop series is specially designed to provide insight into the
discipline of optimisation for a wide range of individuals such as OR
professionals, Quants, risk analysts, DSS application developers,
consultants, and academic researchers.
The courses will take you through all the steps of an optimisation project
using powerful optimisation tools such as AMPL Modelling System, CPLEX,
FortMP, FortSP and SPInE. They are most comprehensive and cover the latest
developments in the field, with plenty of hands-on examples, which help you
develop stochastic programming applications for your sector, be it
financial planning, portfolio selection, supply chain, or energy systems
planning.
