Session: 8B, Tuesday 15:45-17:45
The purpose of this tutorial is to introduce the basic concepts of optimization in R&M. We review the fundamentals of optimization theory, then explore various optimization techniques, including specific optimization models for R&M problems, methods for s_olving them, and provide some examples for understanding the application. This is an advanced tutorial and upon completion of the tutorial, attendees should have an understanding of optimization in general and how it applies to R&M problems.
