☀ It's the same story every summer: 😎 Many holidaymakers face a unique challenge: Packing efficiently to maximize both luggage space and the room for souvenirs from their destination. What most people find annoying, mathematicians see as a a fascinating mathematical problem tackled by Thomas Hales from the University of Pittsburgh and Koundinya Vajjha, CQF, PhD from Intel Corporation. They’ve recently made strides in determining which geometric shape leaves the largest gaps when packed tightly, publishing a 260-page proof on the Arxiv preprint server (https://lnkd.in/e8D7YBDD). Hales is renowned for his complex proofs. In 1997, he demonstrated that regular hexagons are the most efficient shape for covering a surface without gaps, minimizing perimeter relative to area—a principle even bees utilize in their honeycombs. However, when it comes to shapes that leave the most gaps, the challenge is more intricate. Shapes like circles and regular octagons cover significant surface area but still leave gaps. Interestingly, grinding off the octagon’s corners in a hyperbolic fashion, as discovered by German mathematician Karl Reinhardt in 1934, results in even larger gaps, covering only about 90.24% of the area. Despite Reinhardt’s plausible findings, his derivation didn’t definitively prove that this modified octagon was the worst shape for packing. In 2018, Vajjha joined Hales to further explore this problem using a method called "optimal control." Their goal was to formulate a mathematical function to generate and evaluate all possible convex, centrally symmetrical polygons. This process, however, produced infinite "pathological" solutions, requiring an additional tool to filter out these impractical results. After years of collaboration, Hales and Vajjha employed Poincaré mapping to effectively bypass these unviable solutions. Their research marks a significant step towards proving that the worst packing shape is a polygon with straight edges and hyperbolic corners, though it remains unconfirmed whether this polygon is an octagon. The two researchers, undeterred by the lengthy pursuit, remains committed to solving this complex problem, embodying the persistent spirit of mathematical inquiry. A spirit that we at INFORM can understand very well! 🌞 #worldofinform #mathematics #inform

📢 INFORM has launched its Syncrotess Optimization Plus solution at Norfolk Southern’s Austell terminal in Atlanta, Georgia. 🚂 The solution reportedly enables the terminal to have complete transparency of their stacked operations as well as optimized yard storage and crane movement operations. INFORM’s add-on AI and optimization solution takes a modular approach to adding advanced intelligence to a terminal’s existing TOS. This path allows them to isolate the terminal’s specific challenges and provide a bespoke solution for their specific operational challenges. As an add-on optimization solution, Norfolk Southern have built the required optimization on top of their existing Terminal Operating System (TOS) OPTCS 2.0. Austell is the second Norfolk Southern site running INFORM’s Syncortess Optmization Plus solution. In 2023, NS took the solution live at their Rossville terminal. Will DeShazor, Norfolk Southern Group Vice President Intermodal Automotive Terminal Operations commented: “INFORM’s Syncrotess Optimization Plus solution is helping revolutionize our operations at Norfolk Southern’s Austell and Rossville terminals, providing us with unparalleled visibility and efficiency in our stacked operations, yard storage, and crane movements. Our rollout in Austell marks another step forward in our commitment to delivering exceptional service to our customers while optimizing our terminal operations.” Dr.-Ing. habil. Eva Savelsberg, Senior Vice President at INFORM’s Terminal & Distribution Center Logistics Division commented: “I’m tremendously proud of INFORM’s team and their commitment to the Norfolk Southern project. It is great to have the second Norfolk Southern site go-live; it is a strong demonstration of our continued partnership with NS.” #worldofinform #inform #AI #terminallogistics #optimization

📢 INFORM Software Improves Efficiency of Talma at Major Airports in Colombia 💥 Specializing in AI-driven optimization solutions for aviation ground operations, we provide Talma Servicios Aeroportuarios S.A., a leading company in airport services in Latin America, with ground handling optimization software solutions at airports Talma serves in Colombia. 💡 Talma is rolling out the initial installation of INFORM’s Groundstar and Workforceplus, at its operations center at the Bogotá airport, later expanding the GroundStar solutions to the main airports they operate, such as Cali, Medellín, and Cartagena. The ability of the INFORM software to streamline data processing times to perform resource planning and scheduling will impact Talma’s more than 3,500 ground-handling employees at the Colombian sites. 🌱 “We are excited to be working with Talma to support their resource planning goals,” said Uschi Schulte-Sasse, senior vice president of INFORM Aviation. “We see this endeavor as a true partnership that will empower Talma to solve some of their most pressing challenges. We are proud to enable a fully localized implementation and support through INFORM’s office based in Santiago de Chile.” 🎉 “We are very enthusiastic about this project with one of the main ground handlers in the region. During the pilot phase and the implementation, we saw a team with huge commitment and willingness to implement two of the main modules of GroundStar in a highly professional way. We are looking forward to extending our collaboration in the future,” explains Federico dos Reis, CEO of INFORM Latin America SSC. “In the coming years, operations in Colombia will be challenging due to the implementation of labor changes that will add complexity to the roster creation. This complexity brings new challenges that GS WorkforcePlus will support implementing in an efficient way,” adds dos Reis. 🚀 “Proof of concept testing in tandem with INFORM was an ideal way to analyze the functionality and adaptability of these systems and made it highly transparent that Talma would greatly benefit from greater efficiency in resource planning,” said Alejandro Molina Velez, Talma commercial and project manager. “Among the goals we plan to achieve are resource optimization to realize projected savings and the ability to integrate existing technological tools to avoid manual data management.” #worldofinforn #ai #aviation #software
