Rebels in Space Fragmented authority, non–conventional logistics & networks of violence in Central Africa Ghent University
The study of violent conflict in the post-colonial world has burgeoned in recent decades and finds increasing interdisciplinary traction. This triggered new literature conceptualising contemporary conflict and focusing on an array of case studies and themes. What is missing in this literature, though, is attention to intersecting dynamics of space and authority in conflict. Using an interdisciplinary approach, I bridge this gap and ...

New models and algorithms for distribution logistics KU Leuven
In our research, we will focus on applying state-of-the-art solution methods from combinatorial optimization for finding high-quality solutions to the models to be developed. For optimal procedures, this especially includes integer-programming-based approaches such as branch-and-price, branch-and-cut, and variants of those methods. For heuristic procedures, we envisage various meta-heuristic frameworks (genetic algorithms, tabu search, etc.), ...
