Michael Affenzeller and Stefan Wagner were invited to hold a keynote and a HeuristicLab-tutorial at the IWMMA conference in Krasnoyarsk, Russia - The Sixth International Workshop on Mathematical Models and their Applications.

The HeuristicLab Team is expanding further and we want to welcome our new team members, Daniel Dorfmeister, Lukas Kammerer and Roland Hanghofer.

Daniel and Lukas completed their master studies at the University of Applied Sciences Upper Austria this year. Both graduated in Software Engineering from the double degree program at the University of Calabria and the FH OÖ Campus Hagenberg .

Daniel is working on the project DigiMont, Lukas on the contract research for EREMA.

Roland is still in the bachelor degree course and works as a trainee for the research group.

Our research group member Jan Zenisek won the VI Edition of Gianni Cantice Award for Gifted Simulation Students for his submission "Smart Maintenance Lifecylce Management: A Design Proposal". We would like to congratulate you, Jan, on this award!
