Problem Modeling (Optimization Engine)

Problem modeling is a key step in the deployment of a new Optimization Engine project. It consists of transforming the client’s requirements into a problem description that is understandable by the engine.

Typically we start by using a graphical norm to discuss with the customer, then it is refined into the final textual problem description used to instantiate the Multi-Agent Optimization Engine. Here is a presentation of the graphical norm and how to build it.
