We walk through an optimization problem step by step, clearly explaining how to identify variables, set up the correct function, apply derivatives, and find maximum or minimum values. Each step is ...

Abstract: Many engineering design optimization problems can be represented as mixed-variable optimization problems. This study presents a heuristic approach for solving mixed-variable optimization ...

Solving optimization problems is challenging for existing digital computers and even for future quantum hardware. The practical importance of diverse problems, from healthcare to financial ...

Palo Alto, California-based D-Wave Quantum Inc. claims to be the first company that sells computers that leverage quantum effects in their operation. The company recently demonstrated how its quantum ...
