Is there anything special about applying modern optimization methods to applications in an industrial environment? The need to solve challenging technical problems in a setting characterized by strict time and monetary constraints, defines both the nature and substance of optimization research. The speaker will review lessons learned from past experience, and then will address issues facing the optimization practitioner in today's industrial setting.
