Dr. Ferris' research is concerned with algorithmic and interface
development for large scale problems in mathematical programming,
including links to the GAMS and AMPL modeling languages, and general
purpose software such as PATH, NLPEC and EMP. He has worked on
many applications of both optimization and complementarity,
including cancer treatment planning, energy modeling,
economic policy, traffic and environmental engineering,
video-on-demand data delivery, structural and mechanical engineering.
Ferris is a SIAM fellow, an INFORMS fellow,
received the Beale-Orchard-Hays prize from the Mathematical
Programming Society and is a past recipient of a NSF Presidential
Young Investigator Award, and a Guggenheim Fellowship. He serves
on the editorial boards of Mathematical Programming,
and Optimization Methods and Software.
