Zonghao Gu
Chief Research Fellow & Co-Founder
Dr. Zonghao Gu has a B. Eng. in Mechanical Engineering and an M. Eng. in Industrial Management from Tongji University, Shanghai. He has a PhD in Industrial Engineering from the Georgia Institute of Technology. Dr. Gu has published several papers on the computational aspects of mathematical programming. He is one of the world’s leading experts on the computational aspects of linear, integer, and quadratic programming, and is particularly well known for his deep understanding of cutting planes and their application to the solution of general mixed-integer programs. Dr. Gu worked from 1995 to 1998 as an optimization software developer for LINDO Systems, Inc., before joining the ILOG CPLEX R&D team in 1998 as a senior software developer and later as a Distinguished Scientist. From 2005 to 2008 he was Project Architect for the CPLEX R&D team and was the lead developer for CPLEX 11. He was responsible for the implementation of the CPLEX QP simplex and MIQP solvers, had primary responsibility for the presolve and cutting plane routines, and made various contributions to the CPLEX LP simplex solver.
Tobias Achterberg
Vice President of Research and Development
Dr. Achterberg studied mathematics and computer science at the Technical University of Berlin and the Zuse Institute Berlin. He finished his PhD in mathematics under supervision of Prof. Martin Grötschel in 2007. Dr. Achterberg is the author of SCIP, currently the best academic MIP solver. In addition to numerous publications in scientific journals, he has also received several awards for his dissertation and for SCIP, such as the Beale-Orchard-Hays Prize. From 2006, Dr. Achterberg worked for ILOG/IBM as developer of CPLEX in versions 11 to 12.6. Since 2014 he has been involved as a Senior Developer in the development of the Gurobi Optimizer. In his spare time, Dr. Achterberg likes to play the drums, read books, and play board games. Moreover, he enjoys going to rock and punk rock concerts.
