项目摘要

Sen 9423598 The objective of this project is to hold a workshop on the subject of stochastic optimization and its applications. Stochastic optimization is a subset of the general subject area of mathematical optimization. However, unlike most optimization techniques in which the values of the parameters in the model are assumed to be known with certainty, in stochastic optimization, this is not the case. Stochastic optimization recognizes the presence of uncertainties in the values of model parameters. This is an area of optimization that attempts to capture the uncertainties that exist in modeling and solving real life problems. This workshop is aimed at providing a forum whereby researchers, industrial practitioners, and graduate students with interest in the subject area of stochastic optimization can meet to discuss current research directions and emphasis, share research results, and identify the challenges and direction for future research. Invitees to the workshop will consists of known researchers and industrial practitioners in the field. Graduate students will be invited to gain some insights on what the research needs and directions are. Stochastic Optimization has become one the fastest growing fields in mathematical programming. The growth is the results of the increasing recognition that uncertainty plays a critical role in many decision making and design environments. The various sectors in business, science, engineering, and the social sciences where stochastic optimization can be applied make the development of this subject area very critical. A better understanding of how to integrate uncertainties into decision making will significantly improve decision making processes and ultimately, the quality of life.

Sen 9423598 该项目的目标是举办一个关于随机优化及其应用主题的研讨会。随机优化是数学优化一般主题领域的一个子集。然而，与大多数优化技术不同的是，在随机优化中，假设模型中的参数值是已知的，但情况并非如此。随机优化识别模型参数值中存在的不确定性。这是一个优化领域，试图捕获建模和解决现实生活问题中存在的不确定性。本次研讨会旨在提供一个论坛，让对随机优化主题领域感兴趣的研究人员、工业从业者和研究生可以聚在一起讨论当前的研究方向和重点，分享研究成果，并确定未来研究的挑战和方向。研讨会的受邀者将包括该领域的知名研究人员和工业从业者。将邀请研究生了解研究需求和方向。随机优化已成为数学规划中发展最快的领域之一。这种增长是人们越来越认识到不确定性在许多决策和设计环境中发挥着关键作用的结果。可以应用随机优化的商业、科学、工程和社会科学的各个领域使得该学科领域的发展非常关键。更好地理解如何将不确定性纳入决策将显着改善决策过程，并最终改善生活质量。
