Efficient Computational Methods for Constrained Path Problems. We consider a class of path design problems which arise when an object needs to traverse between two points through a specified region. The region may be a continuous space or the path may be restricted to the edges of a network. The path must optimise a prescribed criterion such
as risk, reliability or cost and satisfy a number of constraints.

We consider a class of path design problems which arise when an object needs to traverse between two points through a specified region. The region may be a continuous space or the path may be restricted to the edges of a network. The path must optimise a prescribed criterion such
as risk, reliability or cost and satisfy a number of constraints.
Problems of this type readily arise in the defence, transport and
communication industries. In addition to efficient solution methods
for these problems the project will produce computational tools for
a wide range of related network routing problems.Read moreRead less
