You can now request features and submit bug reports to the Optimization.Framework project at http://youtrack.optimizationzen.com The screenshot shows how to do that:

We just released our Optimization.Framework, which lets you formulate mathematical models in C# and use a number (in the current release we have interfaces to Gurobi and Cplex) of solvers to solve them. In the next weeks we will post a few “Howto” screencasts in which we will demonstrate how we think our framework is [...]
From the Faculty Research Awards program site: The purpose of this program is to facilitate more interaction between Google and academia and also nurture stronger relations and partnerships with universities. The intent of the awards program is to support academic research aimed at improving information access (defined broadly). When we read this we thought “improving [...]
This is a small sample application, which demonstrates how a real life optimization problem can be solved using web (and) service technologies. Consider the following: You have been on a vacation with 5 friends. During that time you spent money on all sorts of things and sometimes you have paid for (some of) your mates [...]
We made this little testbench that allows you to quickly evaluate OML models on our Cluster. It will return the results as a simple string, when you click on “Optimize”. Please upgrade your browser
Thank god for giving us the “Off Topic” category The other day I was at a friend’s place and found this box which said “LINQ” on it. Coming from a .NET background I figured that this must have something to do with querying data but somehow as a game. Well, sort of, see yourself here: [...]
Hmm, this could be interesting…Microsoft launched this website along with its new “Technical computing initiative”. I am not 100% sure what exactly they are planning, but at least one paragraph is worth quoting: Scientists, engineers and analysts are pushing common tools (i.e. spreadsheets and databases) to the limits with complex, data-intensive models. They need access [...]
Ahh, finally our University has it’s own iPhone App..it was about time I have to say! Dirk Schumacher wrote this really nice and handy app that shows you the daily menus of all our cafeterias/restaurants on the campus, that is Mensa, Mensula, Gownsmen’s Pub and Palmengarten. On top you get a nice feature that always [...]
Well, I am kind of late with this, but I just found this feature and found it cool that Google integrated a mini version of a linear solver in Spreadsheets. You can use it when you open a new Spreadsheet and click on Tools->Solve. Everything from there is pretty much self-explanatory. In the example below [...]
What happens when you put the members and alumni of the Decision Support & Operations Research Chair in Paderborn together with the folks from ORCONOMY and myconsult for a team event? Something magical happens (ok, this was cheesy but the best bridge to the first part of the event I could think of ). We [...]
