The International Association of Railway Operations Research stimulates innovative theoretical approaches, high-tech concepts, new technological developments and dynamic decision support systems that contribute to a higher flexibility, performance and punctuality of trains. To this purpose, IAROR organizes the biannual International Conference on Railway Operations Modelling and Analysis (ICROMA). This year, the 10th ICROMA (RailBelgrade 2023) was held in Belgrade, Serbia, on April 25-28, 2023. From 145 presented papers, the IAROR Board and the Scientific Advisory Committee of RailBelgrade 2023 selected...Read More
Prof. Hans Mittelmann of Arizona State University has added Quadratic Unconstrained Binary Optimization (QUBO) problems to his widely recognized benchmarks. With the growing interest in quantum computing, QUBO has been put in the spotlight as a potential solution to complex optimization challenges; since quantum annealers can find approximate solutions to QUBOs The QuBowl QUBO and MaxCut solver, developed by the SynLab of the Research Campus MODAL in collaboration with the Department of Applied Algorithmic Intelligence Methods at ZIB and i2damo...Read More
