[Opt-Net] GOR working group meeting PMO110 about HPC

[schulz-gor]

Dear community,

For our upcoming working group meeting PMO110 in March 2026 about
*PMO110 – High Performance Computing
*we cordially invite you to participate and exchange about this hot 
topic. Where do we stand realistically, where lie the greatest potentials?

Dates: March 12 & 13, 2026
Location: physics center Bad Honnef
Registration: https://www.redseat.de/pmo110/ 
<https://www.redseat.de/pmo110/>

So far we have 4 GPU, 3 quantum and 2 parallel computing talks (incl few 
that are tentatively). Confirmed speakers:

·*GPU-accelerated heuristics for production planning and scheduling
Ambros Gleixner & Alexander Hoen (HTW Berlin)*

·*From Large Scale Industrial Optimization to Quantum-Ready Models: 
Hybrid Solver Pipelines and Practical Benchmarks
Thomas Hußlein (OptWare GmbH)*

·*GPU-Accelerated Heuristics for General-Purpose Mixed-Integer Programs.
Nils Christian Kempke (Zuse Institute Berlin)*

·*Experiences in Super Computers, GPUs, and Quantum Computing*
*Thorsten Koch (Zuse Institute Berlin)*

·*Computational Insights into Solving Optimization Instance Sets with 
MIP Solvers on Multi-Core Hardware
Willi Leinen (Helmut Schmidt University Hamburg)*

·*Energy system modeling with PIPS-IPM++ on HPCs
Manuel Wetzel *

/Others – subject to approval/


Tackling large scale optimization problems with real-world big data is 
highly demanded while due to costs or complexity, many problems are 
still solved on standard computing clusters. What’s in it for your 
problems with the latest advancements of GPUs? Should we invest in more 
high-end supercomputers for parallel processing? When will quantum 
computing play a bigger role for practical applications?
In our upcoming meeting, we want to exchange about these approaches 
applied to real-world mathematical optimizationproblems. If you are 
interested to exchange or present about computational studies, results 
and findings, now is time to register.

We are looking forward to inspiring presentations, exchanging ideas and 
networking opportunities. If you are interested to give a presentation, 
please, contact one of the organizers.

Kind regards,

Jens Schulz, Josef Kallrath, Julia Kallrath
and Thorsten Koch (ZIB)
