The inaugural meeting of the Fields Industrial Optimization Seminar
took place on November 2 at 5:00 p.m.. This series will meet once a
month, on the first Tuesday, in the early evening. Each meeting will
comprise two related lectures on a topic in optimization; typically,
one speaker will be a university-based research and the other from the
private or government sector.We welcome the participation of everyone
in the academic or industrial community with an interest in optimization
-- theory or practice, expert or student.
Please subscribe to the Fields mail list to
be informed of upcoming seminars.
