My Phd research title was
" Optimisation
of Surface Mount Device Placement Machine in Printed Circuit Board
Assembly" that was supervised by Dr. Graham Kendall from the University
of Nottingham. I was a member of the Automated
Scheduling, Optimisation and Planning (ASAP) research group in the School
of Computer Science and Information Technology, University of Nottingham,
United Kingdom.
