This year’s status seminar of the BMBF Mathematics Program took place on 19 and 20 November at the Maritim Hotel in Bonn. Twenty-one projects in the two funding lines “Healthy Living” and “Energy Turnaround” presented their results. This year, the focus was on the application perspective. The collaborative research initiative IBOSS (Information Based Optimization of Surgery Schedules) was presented by Dr. Joachim Gerst of the Charité hospital. His lecture described the practice of surgical planning, the challenges that arise there,...Read More
The first joint IBOSS-ECMath workshop on optimization methods in healthcare took place on 18.-19. October 2018 at the Zuse Institute Berlin (ZIB). It was organized and supported by ECMath and the MODAL AG. The research project Information-Based Optimization of Surgery Schedules (IBOSS) aims at developing fast algorithms to optimize for more efficient resource utilization in daily operating room schedules at hospitals. IBOSS is carried out by three research institutions: ZIB, Freie Universität Berlin and the University of Paderborn each contribute...Read More
Die zentrale Fragestellung des Workshops war die Identifikation von Themen und Technologien, die als Treiber für Innovationen dienen können. Hierbei lag der Focus klar auf der Verbindung von High-Performance Computing mit modernsten Algorithmen für maschinelles Lernen und Entscheidungsunterstützung bei der Verwendung komplexer Daten.
