01/14/2013 - 01/18/2013

Center for Research in Mathematics, Guanajuato, Gto., Mexico

CIMAT is holding a 5-day workshop called “6th Industrial Problem Solving Workshop”. This event will take place at CIMAT in Guanajuato, Mexico.  The workshop is designed to provide graduate students and qualified advanced undergraduates with firsthand experience in industrial research.

Format:

Students will work in teams under the guidance of a mentor. The mentor will help guide the students in the modeling process, analysis and computational work associated with an industrial problem.

There will be 4 teams participating in the workshop:

(1) Identification and simulation of continuous systems: The epidemiological case

(2) Solving real-world engineering problems with a general optimizer: Optimate

(3) Solving large volumes of linear systems in parallel GPU architectures

(4) Robocup: Goal Location
