Fuzzy optimisation has emerged as a vital framework for addressing decision-making and extremum problems where data ambiguity and uncertainty preclude the direct application of classical optimisation ...

Over the past decades, researchers and companies worldwide have been trying to develop increasingly advanced quantum computers. The key objective of their efforts is to create systems that will ...

Scientists have demonstrated a breakthrough application of neutral-atom quantum processors to solve problems of practical use. A collaboration between Harvard University with scientists at QuEra ...

Over the course of my 25-year career in the mathematical optimization software industry, I’ve lost count of how many times I’ve been asked this question: “Can you tell me what mathematical ...

We walk through an optimization problem step by step, clearly explaining how to identify variables, set up the correct function, apply derivatives, and find maximum or minimum values. Each step is ...

There are, generally speaking, two types of people in the mathematical optimization software field: • Optimization solver developers: The technical experts who devise and implement the algorithms that ...

Cambridge, UK, July 22, 2021 – In a development the company said “is likely to set a new industry standard,” scientists at Cambridge Quantum (CQ) have developed a new algorithm for solving ...

We were visiting a hedge fund some years back when we had our first taste of the problem with mean-variance optimization—the tool advisors use to balance risk and reward in client portfolios. We ...

A group of researchers at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology have devised a potentially more effective way of helping computers solve some of the toughest optimization problems they face. Their ...

Constrained optimisation problems are familiar to first-year economics students from the use of indifference curves to solve consumer choice and cost minimisation problems. But the most commonly used ...

Cutting SaaS licenses may save money fast, but without clear ownership and process, you’ll just trade spend for chaos.
