Kathrin Klamroth

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Kathrin Klamroth (born 1968)[1] is a German mathematician and computer scientist whose research topics include combinatorial optimization and facility location. She is a professor in the department of mathematics and computer science at the University of Wuppertal.[2]

Education and career[edit]

Klamroth earned her doctorate at the Technical University of Braunschweig in 1994. Her dissertation, Ramsey-Zahlen für Mengen von Graphen (Ramsey numbers for sets of graphs) was supervised by Ingrid Mengersen.[3] She completed her habilitation in 2002 at the University of Kaiserslautern, and took a faculty position at the University of Erlangen-Nuremberg. In 2008, she moved to her present position at the University of Wuppertal.[4]

Books[edit]

Klamroth is a coauthor of a bilingual textbook, Lineare und Netzwerk-Optimierung/Linear and network optimization (with Horst Hamacher, Vieweg, 2000)[5] and the author of the monograph Single-facility location problems with barriers (Springer, 2002).[6]

Recognition[edit]

In 2019, the International Society on Multiple Criteria Decision Making gave Klamroth their Georg Cantor Award, in recognition of her contributions to the theory and methodology of multiple criteria decision making.[7]
