OPTEC Workshop on Distance Measures and Eigenvalue Optimization

Thu 19 Jun 2008 00:00, Room 05.152, Department of Computer Science, Celestijnenlaan 200 A
OPTEC Workshop on Distance Measures and Eigenvalue Optimization

Aim:
The aim of the workshop is to bring together researchers interested in optimization problems involving eigenvalues, stability and robustness measures. It is at the intersection of numerical optimization (nonsmooth optimization, semi-definite programming), linear algebra (matrix distance problems, pseudospectra and stability radii) and application areas, with the emphasis on problems from systems and control (fixed-structure control design problems, design of open loop stable systems).

Invited speakers:
  • Didier Henrion (LAAS-CNRS, France and Czech Technical University in Prague, Czech Republic)
  • Katja Mombaur (University of Heidelberg and LAAS-CNRS, Toulouse, France)
  • Dominikus Noll (Universite Paul Sabatier, Toulouse, France)
  • Michael Overton (New York University, USA)

This workshop is co-sponsored by ICCoS (Identification and Control of Complex Systems), a Scientific Research Network of the Research Foundation - Flanders (FWO-Vlaanderen).

Newsflash

Two OPTEC professors have been awarded three "Gouden Krijtjes", the yearly teaching awards given by the organization of engineering students (vtk). Prof. Lombaert was awarded the prize for the best course in civil engineering, and Prof. Diehl the prizes for the best professor and the best course in mathematical engineering (where he teaches numerical optimization). They received these awards at the yearly "proffentap" where experienced students taught them how to draft beer professionally.
