Discrete Optimisers

Mathematics is boring and serves no purpose? Wrong! Mathematicians Wiebke Höhn and Marco Lübbecke from the Institute for Mathematics at TU Berlin know that mathematics plays a key role in making our daily lives as pleasant as possible. Algorithms and models help, for example, to find better solutions: be it for the fastest route from Berlin to Munich or the shortest waiting times for busses and trains. A trip through the world of mathematics: what challenges does mathematics pose in such solutions, and why are mathematicians also artists?
