Workshop on Localization and Optimization

Wednesday, July 27, 2022, 9:00 - 14:00

Room 01-014, Georges-Köhler Allee 103, Freiburg 79110, Germany

Small-scale internal workshop on both theory and practice of localization at Freiburg University's Faculty of Engineering. All participants present themselves briefly with one slide at the start, followed by 15 minute talks and discussions. Each talk is of introductory nature and focusses on research questions. The aim is that participants learn about each other’s approaches, and detect possible synergies for research collaborations. The workshop is organized by Wenxin Xiong, Katrin Baumgärtner, Christian Schindelhauer, and Moritz Diehl.
