A celebration of Professors George Nemhauser and Arkadi Nemirovski
George Nemhauser and Arkadi Nemirovski are two of the most influential figures in the areas of discrete and continuous optimization whose scientific work has reshaped optimization and the applications in engineering and statistical learning.
In honor of Nemhauser’s 80th birthday and Nemirovski’s 70th birthday and to celebrate their contributions to optimization and its broad applications, the Stewart School of Industrial & Systems Engineering will host “NemFest,” a workshop that will host research talks and panel discussions as well as a celebration dinner.
