Roberto Baldacci

Dr. Baldacci is Associate Professor of Operations Research at the Department of Electrical, Electronic, and Information Engineering “Guglielmo Marconi” (DEI), University of Bologna. Dr. Baldacci’s research activity is mainly devoted to the theoretical study, the design, the implementation and the evaluation of exact and heuristic algorithms for the solution of combinatorial optimization problems. Particular attention has been deserved both to general problems and to specific problems, mainly with applications in transportation and logistics. From a methodological point of view the research has considered both exact techniques, based on dynamic programming, branch-and-bound, branch-and-cut, column Generation, branch-price-and-cut, and heuristic and metaheuristic techniques. In recent years Roberto Baldacci has also performed an activity of literature survey on routing problems.
