Description of the research topic:
Numerous publications and successful applications in industrial process optimization demonstrate the effectiveness of application-specific optimization models. However, the progress of research and development is limited by the need to write generation code to build newer models. Alternatively, model transformation processes and engine involvement are emerging. The aim of the research is to develop an axiomatically established methodology for the development of model transformation rules that leads to mathematically proven correct results, so the generated mathematical model must contain at least one optimal solution of the practical problem.
Steps of the research:
- To get acquainted with the problems of the industrial process synthesis and their mathematical models
- Knowledge of model transformation methods and tools
- Formal definition of rules for template-based model synthesis
- Elaboration of model transformation rules equivalent to model generating algorithms for model-based solution of industrial optimization problems
- Prove the correctness of a set of rules
