The outcome of the researches in this group would be efficient, faster, reliable and mathematically sound tools (algorithms) which can be used in the industries for the purpose of optimization. To date, the group has developed various algorithms for optimization of dynamical systems with a variety of constraints. There is also a strong interest in how OR and optimization can be performed more successfully in solving complex practical problems including facility location, facility layout design, scheduling, healthcare planning, vehicle routing, network routing, financial and allocation of scarce resources.<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>[\/et_pb_accordion_item][\/et_pb_accordion][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>RGMO RESEARCH GROUP ON MATHEMATICAL OPTIMIZATION RGMO is a research group consisting of academic staffs in the Department of Mathematical Sciences who are actively involved in teaching, supervising and researching across a range of topics and areas in Optimization and Operational Research.
