Research in Discrete mathematics and Mathematical programming is centered around the areas: combinatorial optimization; mathematical programming; graph theory; game theory, whereby the main focus is on the first two areas. Emphasis is put on the development of mathematical methods and techniques related to logistics and telecommunication.
Research in these areas has numerous fields of applications, e.g. process scheduling, production planning, timetabling, location problems, communication network design, routing in networks, strategies for pricing network services. Today’s modern technology with its vital concern for the discrete has given Discrete Mathematics new challenges; in particular, since computers require discrete formulations of problems, it has become indispensable to modern computer science. The increasing use of all kinds of networks, especially in telecommunication, and the further digitalization of our society have led to a eminent role of mathematical programming.
