Title:   Algorithms for Variational Inequalities and Solvers for Quadratic Programming
Speaker: Aswin Kannan, Penn. State University
Time:    3pm, 6/12/2013 (Friday)
Venue:   LCC 11, Lecture Hall Complex

Abstract: This talk will focus on three different classes of problems arising in generic optimization 
settings. In the first part of the talk, we consider a class of monotone variational inequality problems. 

Title:   Analysis of MILP techniques for the Pooling Problem
Speaker: Santanu Dey, Georgia Institute of Technology
Time:    3pm, 5/12/2013 (Thursday)
Venue:   LCC 11, Lecture Hall Complex

Abstract: The pooling problem is a challenging non-convex optimization problem that is motivated by 
refinery processes in the petroleum industry, and also finds application in other areas such as waste water
