This should be an exciting time to promote COMET and initiate new projects in various areas related to optimization. I look forward to a productive year!]]>Outstanding Teaching Facultyldm@engr.uconn.eduWorkAwards2004-09-01T20:27:44-04:00http://www.engr.uconn.edu/~ldm/news/files/46a1c4d0f6837cacc7bdf3c8770d67ae-9.html#unique-entry-id-9http://www.engr.uconn.edu/~ldm/news/files/46a1c4d0f6837cacc7bdf3c8770d67ae-9.html#unique-entry-id-9I received the “Outstanding Teaching Faculty Award” from the CSE Department!

The goal of CP-TOOLS series is to foster the development of constraint programming tools, to showcase their applications, to educate young researchers in the use of CP tools, and to encourage cross-fertilization in tool development. CP-TOOLS-06 is the first event in this series that will take place yearly in conjunction to a major conference.]]>
