Title: A not-so random walk through the world of operations research
Abstract: Throughout the world, optimization problems abound. They are found in mundane tasks and monumental challenges. They are encountered in man-made systems and in nature. Some of these problems are easy to solve; some quite complex. In this presentation, we will begin with an overview of operations research, discuss some examples of optimization that is present in nature, and finally explore some interesting real-world optimization problems. -
