Last week I had the pleasure of being invited to the Second annual JuMP-dev
workshop, which happened in June 27-29,
2018 at Bordeaux, France.
I’ve presented the packages from the Julia Smooth
Optimizers organization, and had a very good
time meeting with the JuMP developers.

For those still unaware, JuMP is a modelling
language for Mathematical Programming written in Julia. It provides access to a few
different solvers for many kinds of problems, and it works inside of Julia, so one can
enjoy the advantages of having a robust language if there is a need for advanced usage.
