  1. 4C- Cork Constraint Computation Centre Conor Nugent c.nugent@4c.ucc.ie James Little j.little@4c.ucc.ie

  2. What is 4C • Based at University College Cork, Ireland • One of the world’s leading academic centres of constraint programming and optimisation research • About 50 academics, staff, and students • Attracted 20M euro in funding in the past 5 years • Award winning research and researchers • Many Industrial partnerships- Alcatel-Lucent, Bausch & Lomb, Intel, Novartis …..

  3. Partnership with Treemetrics • Treemetrics offer a state-of-the-art forest inventory system based on their specially designed software and lazer scanning technology (www.treemetrics.com) • Apply our expertise to utilise this improved information source fully and propagate it through the supply-chain so that better and more efficient decisions are made

  4. What we do • Use our expertise in artificial intelligence, local search and constraint programming to find good and efficient solutions to difficult problems were many solutions are possible. Forestry is full of them • Bucking patterns • Forest allocation problems • Supply chain management/planning • Best selling/auctioning policies • etc.

  5. Collaboration • We and Treemetrics are interested in collaborating under the New forest based products and processes work program • Applying machine learning and state-of-the art optimisation techniques in the forestry industry
