Workshop on Optimization Techniques and Its applications
Mathematical optimization has experienced tremendous growth in the last 20 years, and today, fundamental advances continue to occur at a furious pace. Soft Computing Techniques (Artificial Neural Networks, Genetic Algorithms, Fuzzy Logic Models, Particle Swarm Techniques) have been recognized as attractive alternatives to the standard, well established "hard computing" paradigms. Traditional hard computing methods are often too cumbersome for today's problems. This course benefited to faculty and scholars from all disciplines as a potential computing tool in their research activities. The proposed program will be centered on the development and application of these modern trends in optimization. The workshop aims at familiarizing participants in traditional as well as advanced methods of optimization & its application in various field of academia & life.
