Modeling and Optimization in Space Engineering
Description
Giorgio Fasano is a researcher and practitioner at Thales Alenia Space, with more than three decades of experience in the field of optimization and space engineering applications. He is a Fellow of the Institute of Mathematics and its Applications (IMA, UK), with the designations of Chartered Mathematician (IMA, UK), as well as Chartered Scientist (Science Council, UK).
János D. Pintér is a researcher and practitioner with over four decades of experience in the broad area of systems modeling, analytics, and optimization, with an emphasis on algorithm and software development for nonlinear optimization.Dr. Pintér is the principal developer of nonlinear optimization software products linked to modeling platforms. In 2016 he joined the Department of Industrial and Systems Engineering at Lehigh University, where he teaches a range of operations research topics.
