Projects

• The project Scheduling with Resource Dependent Processing Times is a cooperation between myself, Alexander Grigoriev (Maastricht University), and Maxim Sviridenko (IBM New York). The project is partially funded by the Maastricht Research School of Economics of Technology and Organizations (METEOR).
• The project Pricing Problems in Distributed Settings is a research project funded the Maastricht Research School of Economics of Technology and Organizations (METEOR). The project is funded from April 2005 till March 2009. The researcher employed on this project is drs. Joyce van Loon.
• The project Local Decision in Decentralized Planning Environments is a research project funded by the Netherlands Organization for Scientific Research (NWO). The project is funded from October 2004 till September 2008. The researcher employed on this project is Dipl. Math. Birgit Heydenreich.

Before Maastricht University, I worked as a research assistant at the Institute of Mathematics at the Technische Universität Berlin. There I was involved in several research projects, partly with industry cooperations:

• The project Algorithms for Scheduling Scarce Recources in Chemical Engineering was funded by the Bundesministerium für Bildung und Forschung (bmb+f) within the program Mathematical Methods for Solving Problems in Industry and Business from July 1997 to August 2000. This project addresses scheduling problems which arise in chemical production processes; it is based on a cooperation with Prof. Kallrath at BASF AG Ludwigshafen. You may want to have a look at the project homepage or the final report which summarizes some of the outcomes of this project.
• The project Polyhedral Methods in Stochastic Scheduling started January 1999, funded by the German-Israeli Foundation for Scientific Research and Development (GIF). It is a German-Israeli cooperation which addresses polyhedral approaches to scheduling problems with random influences. See the project homepage for further information.
• The project Automated Staff Scheduling started in November 2000. It is a cooperation with the ATOSS Software AG in München, Germany. The core of this project is the development and implementation of efficient optimization algorithms for different problems which arise in automated staff scheduling. Eventually, the cooperation aims at providing an interactive software module which allows to generate and manipulate staff assignments automatically, according to the individual needs and objectives of the scheduler.
