Contenu
This course, taught in English, introduces to the foundations of integer programming and combinatorial optimization as well as to the main computing techniques used to model and solve practical discrete optimization problems enojoying partitioning, coloring, routing, telecommunications, location, sustainable logistics and supply chain management features. Particularly emphasis is given to the development of problem solving skills as well as to the digitalization aspects, including among others, the ability to transform mathematical formulations of real problems into computer programs able to solve them.
Table of Contents: Mathematical Preliminaries; Fundamental problems in linear algebra and number theory; Optimizing over diophantine inequalities with positivity constraints; Optimality, relaxations families and relationships among relaxations, and type of bounds; Efficiently solvable combinatorial optimization problems; Rudiments of computational complexity; General solution approach to optimization over integers; Introduction to polyhedral combinatorics; Branch-and-cut; Fundations of the Mosel programming language and applications.

Modes d'évaluation
des acquis des étudiants
des acquis des étudiants
Students are assessed individually by means of an exam that consists of two parts :
1. An evaluation of the applied modeling skills, which focuses on the Mosel programming language as well as on the ability to model given toy problems. A poor score on this part precludes the access to the second part (see point 2).
2. An evaluation of the theoretical skills of the students, carried out by means of a written exam.
