Large-Scale Simulation and Optimization
Many problems in the real world are large and complex. Researchers in this field are trying to improve the algorithm and utilize available computational technology such as parallelism or grid computing to solve such problems where their resulting models are also very large. This technology also enables researchers to have a detail model which is close to the real world problem. Some examples of these problems are transportation problem in the urban area (where there consists of millions of people driving on thousands of streets), financial simulation, bioinformatics, and large-scale planning.
Supply Chain Management (SCM)
The researches in SCM involve the study of the process of planning, implementing, and controlling the operations of the supply chain with the purpose of reducing cost and increasing efficiency. SCM includes all movement and storage of raw materials, work-in-process inventory, and finished goods from origin to consumption. There are many problems that can be modeled by simulation and optimization models.
