Abstract :
What are some of the optimization problems of the steel industry? We will discuss the differences between two approaches of the optimization problems: black box vs. expert systems. The size of the solution space being very large some heuristic approaches are needed. We will discuss how to select the heuristics and what are the strong and weak points of the different approaches. The optimization project have to be integrated into workflow that less automatic and have its strong points. We will discuss how to take into account this aspect of the problematic in the conception of the solution
