Večer matematike (Mathematics Evening) online workshop on
RIT Croatia
As part of the popular event "Večer matematike” (Mathematics
Evening) held in kindergartens, schools and colleges throughout Croatia, online
workshops will be organized by RIT Croatia as well. The workshops will be held
on December 2 by our faculty, Dr Kristina Šorić and Dr Kristijan Tabak. The
workshops are intended for high school and university students interested in
the application of mathematics in business. If you are interested in attending
please apply by sending an email to admissions@croatia.rit.edu.
"Linear supply chain programming" by Dr
Kristina Šorić
Dec. 2, 2021, 3:30 p.m.-4:30 p.m.
Zoom: https://lnkd.in/dV7_KJ3x
Nowadays, we often hear that the shelves in stores will be
empty for Christmas, we will be left without Christmas presents, there will be
a shortage. The reason for this is delays in global supply chains. Ships are
waiting to disembark in front of world ports, there is a shortage of trucks and
drivers, there has been a sudden increase in demand after a year of pandemic.
In this workshop, Dr Šorić will explain the concept of the supply chain, and
present mathematical models and methods that we can use to better manage supply
and demand.
"Designs and symmetries, application to market
research" by Dr Kristijan Tabak
Dec 2, 2021, 5:00 p.m. - 6:00 p.m.
Zoom: https://lnkd.in/dMMMPwHq
Dr Tabak will define the term combinatorial design, which is
a method that explains how to symmetrically divide a set of data, samples and
the like into smaller sets that can qualitatively represent the entire
population. We find applications of combinatorial designs in the problems of
asking questionnaires for market research, selecting stocks in the portfolio,
crossing various numbers of plants in order to obtain new more advanced species
and the like.
