Huan Yu

Occupational title:

Lecturer in Business Analytics

University:

University of Southampton

Research interests: Huan’s research interests are customer learning, demand modelling and decision-making optimization under uncertainty. She uses various business analytics tools, including machine learning and econometric methods, to develop customer behaviour and demand modelling. Recently she is working on data-driven research, including developing integrated estimation and optimization methods to improve business decisions, such us pricing, assortment, order and inventory decisions.

Alistair Clark

Occupational title:

Associate Professor in Operational Research and Faculty Director of Research

University:

University of the West of England

Research interests: My research interests centre on the development of models and heuristic methods for problems of resources planning and scheduling. Such problems are often highly complex and can be solved to optimality for only very small instances. As a result, approximate models and solution methods are developed suitable for operational use making use of integer programming and metaheuristic approaches.

Keywords: Developing Countries; Logistics; Production; Scheduling
