Analysis, Control and Optimization of complex dynamical systems - 1 Assistant Professor Position

L'IMT di Lucca, Institutions Markets Technologies, ha un bando aperto per un ricercatore universitario in   Dynamical Systems, Control, and Optimization. Di seguito un estratto del bando:

MT Institute for Advanced Studies Lucca invites applications for an Assistant Professor position in the area of analysis, control and optimization of complex dynamical systems. Candidates with a sound knowledge of control and optimization methods and an interest in both theoretical research and applications to practical problems are desired. Research experience is expected in at least one of the following areas: model predictive control, dynamic optimization, stochastic optimization, control systems design based on optimization methods. Previous experience with applications of control/optimization to smart grids and energy markets is a plus, but candidates with experience in other application areas are welcome. Candidates with a Ph.D. in engineering or mathematics with a focus on control oroptimization are preferable, and they should have an excellent record of high-impact international publications.

The Assistant Professor will be a part of the Research Unit "DynamicalSystems, Control, and Optimization" (DYSCO, http://dysco.lab.imtlucca.it/) in the Computer Science and Applications area of the Institute, and will perform research activities, tutorship and mentoring of Ph.D. students, limited teaching of graduate courses and participation in the development of the research activities of the Institute.

Appointment compensation packages will depend on the candidates and their records of accomplishment, but are competitive on an international level. Applicants mustbe able to teach graduate courses in English; knowledge of Italian is not required.

Interested candidates must apply before October 31st, 2011 12:00 pm CET byfilling in the online application form at http://www.imtlucca.it/faculty/positions under "Junior Faculty Recruitment Program". They will also be asked to submit a CV, research paper (published or working) and the name and contact details of three referees.

For further information about the position, applicants can refer to the website, or can contact Sara Olson, e-mail: researchers.opening@imtlucca.it.
I termini per l'iscrizione scadono il 31 ottobre 2011.

Digital Twin – Il caso Hyperloop

  Con il termine  hyperloop  si identificano una serie di tecnologie che promettono di rivoluzionare il trasporto di persone e cose. L’idea di base è molto semplice: far viaggiare all’interno di tubi, dove viene creato il vuoto, delle capsule ad alta velocità con binari a levitazione magnetica.   Credits: Virgin Hyperloop on instagram.com/p/CRHEB9ctQ6u/   Qualche tempo fa, mi è capitato di leggere un interessante articolo su come la progettazione della soluzione guidata dal gruppo Virgin, sia stata affiancata da analisi svolte mediante un sistema di ottimizzazione matematica. Come meglio descritto nel seguito, un digital twin, completamente basato su un modello matematico di ottimizzazione, permette di valutare le migliori scelte progettuali tenendo in considerazione i vari obiettivi di progetto.   La necessità di avere un digital twin nasce probabilmente dal fatto che le tecnologie  hyperloop  non hanno una base di partenza già esistente. No...

Amazon’s SCOT

Amazon’s SCOT The most amazing application of mathematical optimization in logistics What is SCOT? The state of the art in advanced mathematics at the service of the operations management. I like how some important companies implement this scientific development. — Julio Mora Olivares SCOT is an acronym meaning Supply Chain Optimization Technologies . Probably it is the largest and the most complete application of operational research in the field of logistic. In summer 2017, I discovered that Amazon was hiring operational researchers in Italy. This intrigued me enough to start some research on the Internet. I found a plentiful source of information on LinkedIn profiles, where people were sharing their working experience, their goals and successes. I’ve collected all the pieces of information and, with my experience, I was able to reconstruct a whole picture of this project. Human resources First things first: people The team working on SCOT project covers many countr...

Teoria dell'incertezza

Dal sito internet del Prof. Baoding Liu ho trovato due interessanti libri sulla teoria dell'incertezza. Uncertainty Theory Uncertainty theory is a branch of mathematics based on normality, monotonicity, self-duality, and countable subadditivity axioms. The goal of uncertainty theory is to study the behavior of uncertain phenomena such as fuzziness and randomness. The main topics include uncertainty theory, probability theory, credibility theory, and chance theory. This book provides a self-contained, comprehensive and up-to-date presentation of uncertainty theory. The purpose is to equip the readers with an axiomatic approach to deal with uncertainty. Theory and Practice of Uncertain Programming Real-life decisions are usually made in the state of uncertainty (fuzziness and randomness). How do we model optimization problems in uncertain environments? How do we solve these models? In order to answer these questions, this book provides a self-contained, comprehensive and up-to-date ...
