Overview
As we enter into the era of 5G, the telecommunications industry is undergoing profound and rapid change. Companies and organizations across the telecommunications value chain – from telecom services providers to telecom equipment manufacturers to government regulators and other key players such as vendors and consultants – must be able to transform their businesses to cope with the changes, overcome the challenges, and capitalize on the opportunities created by the emergence of 5G.

Explore real-world problems in your industry
Dive deep into sample models, built with our Python API.
Customer Assignment
Sharpen your mathematical optimization modeling skills with this example, in which you will learn how to select the location of facilities based on their proximity to customers. We’ll demonstrate how you can construct a mixed-integer programming (MIP) model of this facility location problem, implement this model in the Gurobi Python API, and generate an optimal solution using the Gurobi Optimizer. This modeling example is at the intermediate level, where we assume that you know Python and are familiar with the Gurobi Python API. In addition, you should have some knowledge about building mathematical optimization models.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is prescriptive analytics?
Prescriptive analytics tools like mathematical optimization help you make decisions based on your real-world business goals (“objectives”) and limitations (“constraints.”) This can be especially useful when you’re facing a business problem with multiple, conflicting goals (such as cutting spending while increasing production) and multiple constraints (such as time, distance, product availability).
