Background
- Working on various problems related to scheduling and routing, such as educational timetabling, vehicle routing, or scheduling for distributed environments. Her work is inspired by real-life problems coming from practice, and she concentrates on approaches that allow the solving of practical problems such as course timetabling in the UniTime system, vehicle routing with Wereldo company, warehouse planning with Notino company, or computer job scheduling in CERIT national infrastructure. She solves these problems using metaheuristics, constraint programming, or mixed integer programming.
Miscellany
- Teaches courses on Artificial Intelligence, Scheduling, and Constraint Programming; served as a vice-dean for bachelor and master studies from 2011 to 2015.
