TITLE
Computational Progress in Optimization
ABSTRACT
The past 15 years have seen an explosive growth in the number of
applications of linear and integer programming. The evolution
of powerful algorithms for solving these problems--together with
ever more powerful computers--has brought the application of
optimization to the desktop. Lustig will describe the computational
state-of-the-art in optimization and the key advances that have
led to a tremendous increase in solving power. The result of
this increased power is that many problems once considered unsolvable
are now solvable, often in a matter of minutes.
