Welcome to my personal page!

My name is Mahdi Moeini. I am holder of a Habilitation and a PhD degree in Computer Science, and I do my research activities in Operations Research, Mathematical Optimization, and their applications. I have some research contributions in these fields, and most of them have already been published as journal papers, Springer book chapters, or articles in international conference proceedings. Here, you can find a list of my published papers.

NEWS:
2022: In September 1, 2022, I started a new position at the ENSIIE (École Nationale Supérieure d'Informatique pour l'Industrie et l'Entreprise) (France) as an Associate Professor in Computer Science (Operations Research, Machine Learning, and Sustainability).
I am permanent member of the research lab. SAMOVAR/Télécom SudParis of the Institut Polytechnique de Paris (IP Paris). 
2021: I was visiting professor (first-class professor) at the University of Lorraine (France) in November and December 2021. During my stay at the University of Lorraine, I cooperated with the research group "Computer Science and Applications" at the department  of computer science in Metz (France).
2018: Mr. Daniel Schermer, who did his Master Thesis under my supervision (at the Technische Universität Kaiserslautern, in Germany), received the prize of the best Master Thesis in Germany, in the field of Operations Research, from die Gesellschaft für Operations Research (GOR). Here you can find more information (in German).

My teaching experiences cover a wide range of topics and courses, including: Operations Research (I & II), Computational Intelligence, Data Science, Industrial Optimization, Mathematical Optimization, Sustainability in Digitization, Web Programming, Portfolio Optimization, etc. More details.  

Since October 2014 until end of August 2022, I was adjunct lecturer at the chair of Business Information Systems and Operations Research (BISOR), at the Technische Universität Kaiserslautern, in Germany. Broadly speaking, as always, my research/teaching programs were focused on "operations research, mathematical optimization, and their applications".

Before joining BISOR, I had several research fellowships:

Since December 2013 until end of September 2014, I was (CNRS) researcher at the Center of Research in Computer Science (CRIL- CNRS), in France. The research program was focused on interactions between "operations research" and "constraint programming"; particularly, in presence of uncertainty and soft constraints.

Since December 2012 until November 2013, I was doing a joint postdoctoral research program at LIA-CERI (University of Avignon), in France. My research program was focused on polyhedral analysis of the Minimum Linear Arrangement Problem (MinLA) and its possible applications in logistics and transportation.

During the period December 2011-November 2012, I was postdoctoral research associate at the Technische Universität Braunschweig, in Germany. As a member of the group "Algorithms" (directed by Prof. Dr. Sandor Fekete), I was doing my research program in collaboration with Prof. Dr. Alexander Kröller and Dr. Christiane Schmidt. I was working on the Set Covering Problem, its extensions, and its applications in solving the General Art Gallery Problems. More precisely, I was involved in a DFG project entitled Kunst! - Exact Algorithms for Art Gallery Variants. Here, you can find more information about this project and the Art Gallery Problems.

I had a research contract with the Laboratory of Industrial Engineering (LGI) of Ecole Centrale de Paris, in France. My contract started in Nov. 2010 and terminated in Nov. 2011. During this period, I was working on a project in the field of Health Care. The project was supported by the National Research Agency (ANR) of France. The project had the objective of improving and optimizing the French system of Emergency Medical Services (EMS), that is called SAMU. During this project and in collaboration with the colleagues, we were working on mathematical models that can be used for locating-relocating the emergency medical vehicles.

Previously, I was researcher and lecturer at the University of Paul Verlaine-Metz (University of Lorraine), in France. I was doing my research and teaching duties within the department of Computer Science. I was working on non-convex programming and its applications in solving optimization problems that arise from different domains of Science and Engineering.
