ORryhmiä
ORryhmiä, often written OR-ryhmiä, is a Finnish term used to describe research groups that specialize in operations research (OR) and related optimization methods. In Finland, these groups are typically affiliated with universities or national research institutes and span disciplines such as mathematics, computer science, industrial engineering, and economics. They bring together researchers and, in some cases, industry practitioners to study and solve complex optimization problems.
Typical research areas include linear, integer, and nonlinear optimization; combinatorial optimization; scheduling and transportation/logistics; network design
Organizationally, OR-ryhmiä are usually part of larger departments or research centers. They supervise master's and doctoral
They contribute to education and knowledge transfer by providing problem-solving collaboration with companies and public institutions,
