SUMMARY:Optimization: Theory\, Algorithms\, Applications Lecture Series
CLASS:PUBLIC
DESCRIPTION:TITLE: HiGHS: Theory\, software and Impact\n\nSpeaker:\n Julia
 n Hall\n\nAffiliation:\n University of Edinburgh\n\nZoom:\n Register throu
 gh The Fields Institute\n[https://www.fields.utoronto.ca/cgi-bin/register?
 form_selection=optimization]\n\nABSTRACT:\n\nSince Dantzig formulated the 
 simplex algorithm in 1947\, the widespread\nneed to solve linear optimizat
 ion problems drove the development of\nalgorithmic and computational techn
 iques for decades\, yielding several\nhigh performance commercial and open
  source software systems. This\ntalk will focus on the Edinburgh-based wor
 k on solving large scale\nsparse linear programming problems that underpin
 s the high performance\nopen source linear optimization software\, HiGHS\,
  the challenges of\ndeveloping such software\, and the Impact that it has 
 achieved.
