Description:
Optimization methods algorithms form the core tools for process operations. The session invites papers in the general area of Process Systems Optimization. Topics on theory, algorithms and software for all classes of optimization problems are considered. Application papers offering insights into the interplay between optimization theory and practice are also encouraged
