Keynote Optimization 360 2899 Optimization is all around us—calculating the quickest route on your mobile phone, ensuring timely package deliveries, and streamlining your airline and hotel bookings. Optimization technology is being used in all those situations because it “creates value” - but what exactly does that mean? What’s the hidden connection between a deeply mathematical puzzle-solving tool, and your bottom-line results? What is the interplay between complexity and value?

Keynote Tackling Nonlinearities with Gurobi + Outlook v12 2869 Gurobi can handle a number of non-linear functions in optimization models. Historically, Gurobi first supported convex quadratic function in the objective and constraints. With Gurobi 9.0, Gurobi introduced a global solver for non-convex quadratic models and automatic piecewise-linear approximations of common arithmetic functions. Gurobi 11.0 comes with support for global optimization of models containing univariate non-linear functions . In this talk, we will review those various features and present our current work for tackling non-linearities better, including an outlook to Gurobi 12 .

Case Studies & Use Cases Aimpoint Digital In the landscape of custom decision-support tools using commercial platforms, developers often face the challenge of navigating across multiple platforms tailored to specific analytics methodologies. As a result, optimization, ML, and simulation models tend to live in their preferred platform based on a natural division, which makes it challenging for users to interpret and reconcile the recommendations from these various models. Gurobi’s available APIs in multiple programming languages provide a great opportunity to integrate optimization solutions in a variety of modern data warehouses and cloud architectures. In this talk, we demonstrate the benefits of Databricks through a network optimization example. Using this approach, we can streamline forecasting, optimization, and scenario analysis in a unifying platform, which can help foster better collaboration across teams with various analytics capabilities, and ultimately accelerates time-to-value in complex decision-making.

Technical Training Handling Challenging Models 1779 Finding an optimal solution can be quite challenging for some models. In this session, we discuss potential reasons for this and how to deal with it. We also show a few techniques that help determine why some model is infeasible. Additionally, we give insights into the geometry of MIP to better understand the difficulty of models. Heuristics are essential to finding reasonable solutions quickly. We discuss heuristics included in the solver and other general concepts.

Technical Training If You Can Model It, You Can Optimize It 2898 You already have an in-depth knowledge of your business challenges, likely supported by code and conditional statements that define the business rules and established specifications. Additionally, you have regression and machine learning models that provide predictions and address more intricate aspects of your business. In this session, we will guide you through converting these elements into the components of a robust optimization model. We will illustrate this by extending the example introduced in the 'Optimization Crash Course'. By converting these existing representations into optimization frameworks, we'll show you how to translate your predictive models into decision-making tools, embracing the principle that if you can model it, you can optimize it.
