Subject aims expressed by acquired skills and competences

The student will be able to recognize basic classes of optimization problems and will understand conditions of their solvability and correct formulation. Effective algorithms, heuristics and software will be presented in an extent that is useful for solving engineering problems, so that the student will be able to apply their knowledge to the solution of practical problems.

Summary

Optimization methods are basic tools for improving design and technology. The students will learn about basic optimization problems, conditions of their solvability and correct formulation. Effective algorithms, heuristics and software will be presented in an extent that is useful for the soluving engineering problems.
