Xiaochen Feng

Occupational title:

Early Stage Researcher/PhD

University:

University of Sheffield

Research interests: My research interests are concerned with the study of novel discrete optimisation problems with real-world applications in Humanitarian Operations and Logistics Management and the design and implementation of efficient algorithms for Location and Network Design problems arising in this context.
