MPI is a problem solving workshop that attracts leading applied mathematicians and scientists from universities, industry, and national laboratories. During the workshop, engineers and scientists from industry interact with the academic participants on problems of interest to their companies. In the past, these problems have included, but are not limited to
engineering and product design
process design and control
environmental remediation
scheduling and optimization
financial modeling
The challenge facing business and industry is to prosper in an era of rapid technological growth. Meeting the challenge requires continually improving productivity, resource management, and innovation, both to refine existing products and processes and to create new ones.
The MPI workshop is a resource that offers
clarification and formulation of a proposed or existing process
methods to solve problems of interest to industry
links with applied mathematicians and scientists from universities and national laboratories
access to advanced computing solutions and environments
