Dr. Wilhelm specializes in integer programming, scheduling, and the design and operation of assembly systems. Currently, he is conducting two research projects. One project involves devising new integer programming algorithms to prescribe the types of sensors, the number of each type and the location of each sensor in a surveillance system to assure robust homeland security in U.S. ports and waterways. The second project deals with the design of international assembly systems and their supply chains under NAFTA. He teaches courses in integer programming, scheduling, linear programming and operations research. Dr. Wilhelm is an IIE Fellow and a recipient of the IIE David E. Baker Distinguished Research Award.
