Lehrinhalt

Production companies are confronted with constant process optimization due to cost reasons and competitive pressure.

Optimal planning plays a decisive role in all processes of the procurement, production, distribution, and sales phases. Processes are optimized using optimization models that map profit maximization or cost minimization to their objective functions. In addition, various constraints must be taken into account.

The seminar focuses on the implementation of concrete optimization models with the help of Fico Xpress (or a similar tool). Special emphasis is placed on the analysis and discussion of the effects of different constellations of restrictions and value characteristics of the variables.

No prior knowledge is required, but a basic understanding of the structure of optimization models (objective function, constraints, value ranges) is advantageous.
Inhaltliche Voraussetzungen (erwartete Kenntnisse)

Interest in applied mathematical optimization
Lehrziel

Understanding and working with mathematical models. Independently formulating and solving optimization and decision-making problems in production and logistics using Fico Xpress or a similar tool.
