Managing intermittent generation in electric power systems with high penetration of renewable sources of energy presents major operational challenges. Faster...

Hydrogen is emerging as a crucial energy source in the global effort to reduce dependence on fossil fuels and meet climate goals. Integrating hydrogen into I...

This paper addresses the scheduling of electrical drilling machines in open-pit mines, proposing three constraint programming formulations to account for unc...

Integer (linear) programs are a standard way of formalizing a vast array of optimization problems in industry, services, management, science, and technology....

We explore a scaled spectral preconditioner for the efficient solution of sequences of symmetric and positive-definite linear systems. We design the scaled...

In this report, we present our winning solution to the 16th AIMMS-MOPTA Optimization Modeling Competition on whether a fully renewable energy grid would bene...

As climate change intensifies, the shift to cleaner energy sources becomes increasingly urgent. With wind energy production set to accelerate, reliable win...

This article addresses the efficient coordination of multiple electrical drill rigs in open-pit mines, considering unique constraints such as continuous powe...

Major projects often deviate from their expected budget, schedule, and benefits. Existing techniques to improve the forecasted outcome, such as the Refer...

The increasing penetration of renewable electricity generation as well as the implementation of demand response programs has led to new challenges in the ope...

Governments are motivated to subsidize profit-driven firms that manufacture zero-emission vehicles to ensure they become price-competitive. This paper intr...

We consider a provider of electric vehicle charging that operates a network of charging stations and uses time-varying pricing to maximize profit and reduce ...

The water pump scheduling problem is an optimisation model that determines which water pumps will be turned on or off at each time period over a given time h...

This paper tackles a complex variant of the unit commitment (UC) problem at Hydro-Quebec, referred to as the transient stability constrained unit commitmen...

This work introduces solar, a collection of ten optimization problem instances for benchmarking blackbox optimization solvers. The instances present differ...

The aim of this paper is to analyze the effect of adaptive investments on international environmental agreements (IEAs) focused on reducing greenhouse gas ...

Producing accurate precipitation Intensity-Duration-Frequency (IDF) curves necessitates robust statistical methodologies. Employing a scaling model to combin...

Millions of oil and gas wells are abandoned and orphaned around the world. Due to funding shortfalls, many abandoned and orphaned wells remain unplugged and ...

The Thirteenth Montreal IPSW took place on August 21-25, 2023, and was jointly organized by the Centre de recherches mathématiques (CRM) and the Institute ...
