Overview
The aim of optimisation is to find the best, maximum or minimum solution to a problem, where the problem is formulated in mathematical terms. Such problems exist and emerge practically everywhere in real life. It might be to maximise the profit given the price and other conditions or to optimise the traffic flow. Optimisation problems lead to large computational problems that need to be solved using computers and computational software. This course focuses on how such methods work and can be analysed as well as how the problems can be formulated. Realistic optimisation problems from different areas are solved in the course. Here is MATLAB (and the optimisation toolbox) used.
