We are very excited to announce that the 2025 INFORMS Computing Society (ICS) Conference will take place March 14-16, 2025, in Toronto: sites.google.com/view/ics-2025 Submissions for contributed talks are due on December 23. We invite talks that showcase the dynamic interface of CS, AI & #ORMS.

New #arxiv bot for #optimization and #control! 🎉 bsky.app/profile/arxi...

Hey @tmaehara.bsky.social Thanks for the great work on the arxiv bots here! Any chance you could make one for arxiv math.oc (Optimization and Control)? :)

If your favorite book about algorithms is not Algorithms for Toddlers, then you haven’t read this book yet. Today I used it to talk about greedy algorithms in my Applied Optimization #orms class (some pages below). Here is one of the authors reading the whole book: m.youtube.com/watch?v=nnLO...

New starter pack if you're looking for the #orms community on here: go.bsky.app/SvBND16 Also if you have recommendations of people to add, feel free to send them my way.

Honored to receive the 2025 ONR Young Investigator Award for our project entitled “Data-Driven Analysis and Design of Mathematical Optimization Algorithms”! https://buff.ly/4e3cT5f @USNavyResearch #Optimization #MachineLearning

Very proud of my first PhD student Rajiv Sambharya for defending his thesis! 🎉 Rajiv has done excellent work on learning optimization algorithms for large-scale and embedded optimization, with strong convergence and generalization guarantees. He will soon start a postdoc at UPenn Engineering!

It was great to organize Princeton Workshop on #Optimization, #Learning, and #Control last June! Thanks to everyone who attended and made it a success! 🎉 #OLC24 Missed the live sessions? Catch up on all the talks with the video recordings here: https://buff.ly/3YwomX6

Excited to announce that our work on the OSQP solver (https://osqp.org/) has received the Beale — Orchard-Hays Prize (https://buff.ly/3Yqutfx) for Excellence in Computational Mathematical Programming! 🎉
