SZTAKI researchers won bronze medals at international scientific competitions

In the open competition The Dynamic Pickup And Delivery Problem, organized at the international ICAPS 2021 conference, one of Huawei’s problems had to be solved by the teams. A team of researchers from SZTAKI (Research Institute for Computer Science and Automation), Markó Horváth, Tamás Kis and Péter Györgyi, won the third place worth two thousand dollars

. , was a solution to the inter-factory transport problem articulated by Huawei, where the schedule and route of transport vehicles had to be optimized so that cargo could move from one site to another as efficiently as possible, ie with the least possible delay and with the shortest possible distance.
