Abstract

My name is Thu Huong Dang, and I am currently a lecturer at Lancaster University.

My doctoral research, which received partial sponsorship from Routeware, Inc., was concerned with addressing Combinatorial Optimization Problems (COPs) arising in urban waste collection and recycling.

To date, I have authored several papers on Vehicle Routing Problems and Flowshop Scheduling Problems. I am honored to have received the YoungWomen4OR award from the WISDOM forum within EURO and the Kingsman prize from the Management Science department for being recognized as the best doctoral researcher in the period 2022-23.

Now, my primary focus lies in tackling various COPs, where I explore exact methods to achieve proven optimality and heuristic methods for addressing real-world challenges. Over the next few years, I am contemplating expanding my research to include interdisciplinary topics, such as the use of AI/machine learning in addressing COPs.
