Title: Primal Methods for Very Large-Scale Optimization

We are pleased to announce the winners of the co-supervised doctoral scholarship competition, who will receive a $12,500 scholarship.

At the 33rd EURO Conference in Copenhague, Danmark, the team of professors Issmail El Hallaoui and François Soumis won the prestigious EURO Excellence in Practice Award (EEPA) for their project "OCP Optimizes Its Supply Chain For Africa and The World". It is the fruit of a collaboration between Polytechnique Montréal/GERAD, OCP Group and UM6P University. This project is part of the Ph.D. research topic of El Mehdi Er Raqabi.

We should also underline the very important role of Ahmed Beljadid and Oussama Siwane in this project.
