Summary on Grant Application Form |
Professor S Son is a world renowned authority in the field of Stochastic Programming in general and Stochastic integer Programming in particular. Stochastic Programming (SP) is a modelling framework that introduces uncertainty within optimisation based planning(decision) problems. The SP models combine the two paradigms of descriptive representation of future(uncertainties) with the optimum resource allocation model. Owing to their large dimensions, these SP models are computationally very challenging. Their discrete variables extensions (known as Stochastic Integer Programs) make these models more realistic but computationally even more intractable. Stochastic Integer Program comprise one of the most difficult(NP-Hard) classes of optimisation problems. Through the visit of Professor S Son ,,ve expect to gain further insights and make a joint contribution in this important and growing field of research into Stochastic Integer programming models and algorithms.
