In today's highly competitive world, companies must achieve efficient and effective design and operation of their systems while satisfying stringent constraints incurred by the concerns about sustainability of business and the natural environment. These challenges require novel computational methods to handle complex large-scale systems that are subject to uncertainties and nonlinear models. Optimization models and algorithms play a central role in the development of these methods. The proposed research program targets the development of systematic and efficient approaches to optimization techniques to solve complex process systems engineering problems subject to uncertainty, which cannot be satisfactorily solved with the current technologies. The major goals are to develop tractable problem formulations to address a huge (sometimes infinite) number of possible uncertainty realizations and to develop optimization methods that can guarantee global optimality for large-scale complex problems.

在当今竞争激烈的世界中，公司必须实现其系统的高效和有效的设计和操作，同时满足对商业和自然环境可持续性的关注所带来的严格限制。这些挑战需要新的计算方法来处理复杂的大规模系统，受到不确定性和非线性模型。优化模型和算法在这些方法的发展中起着核心作用。拟议的研究计划的目标是开发系统和有效的方法来优化技术，以解决复杂的过程系统工程问题的不确定性，这不能令人满意地解决与目前的技术。主要目标是开发易于处理的问题公式，以解决大量（有时是无限的）可能的不确定性实现，并开发优化方法，可以保证大规模复杂问题的全局最优性。
