Last November, Google announced it was dropping support for a number of structured data types and search features. One of those was practice problem structured data types, and now, Google has removed ...

Optimization problems often involve situations in which the user's goal is to minimize and/or maximize not a single objective function, but several, usually conflicting, functions simultaneously. Such ...

We walk through an optimization problem step by step, clearly explaining how to identify variables, set up the correct function, apply derivatives, and find maximum or minimum values. Each step is ...

Discover how optimization transforms complex problems into actionable solutions and explore the wide range of career opportunities it opens across academia, industry, and government. This workshop ...

When the digital revolution first hit classrooms in the early 2010s—and more schools began issuing laptops or tablets to students for individual use—online learning seemed to promise a faster, easier ...

Solving optimization problems is challenging for existing digital computers and even for future quantum hardware. The practical importance of diverse problems, from healthcare to financial ...

Annealing processors (APs) are gaining popularity for solving complex optimization problems. Fully-coupled Ising model APs are especially valued for their flexibility, but balancing capacity (number ...

Does calculus play a role in analyzing financial markets and predicting stock prices? The short answer is yes. Calculus is a powerful tool used by financial analysts, traders, and quants to make ...

Abstract: Many engineering design optimization problems can be represented as mixed-variable optimization problems. This study presents a heuristic approach for solving mixed-variable optimization ...
