How many mathematicians does it take to optimise your internet shopping deliveries? In conversation with the Winners of the 12th AIMMS-MOPTA Optimization Modeling Competition, we hear how team NP Die Hard discovered their previously untapped skills to solve this problem in 3 months… and get a paper published from their work! From choosing your warehouses, to using the most appropriate optimisation to arrange deliveries, the team solved a very relevant problem for all of us in lockdown. After presenting their unique solution, they were contacted by a journal editor in the audience who wanted to publish their innovative work. What better way to celebrate pi day?
