AMOEBA ENERGY, through mathematical optimization technologies for deriving the optimal allocation of various resources, supports the efforts of those who seek to save the world by maximizing economical, environmental, and democratic improvements.To realize and popularize the digital transformation through our combinatorial optimization technologies, we have been collaborating with several client companies for their Proof-of-Concept projects and delivered successful results that lead us to the next phase.- A factory/warehouse manufacturer: optimal scheduling of robots in automated transportation system- A logistics company: optimal assignment of vehicles in long-distance transportation- A university hospital: optimal scheduling of surgical operations that share numerous rooms and equipments AMOEBA ENERGY's uniqueness is brought by our original biologically-inspired problem solvers named "amoeba-inspired algorithms," which are designed to execute the variable-level (fine-grained) parallel search, so that they can be accelerated by hardware implementation using FPGA, GPU, and ASIC with domain-specific architecture.One of the advantageous features of our approaches over other existing optimization hardware such as Ising machines is that the amoeba-inspired algorithms search for a solution to combinatorial optimization problems not only by minimizing the cost function but also by satisfying the constraints, making it possible to tackle more diverse application problems in broader practical scenes.We ultimately try to develop our original ASIC chips and productize them, aiming at solving large-scale application problems that are too hard for CPU-based computing to process in realtime.For more detail, please refer to our recent research papershttps://www.nature.com/articles/s41598-020-77617-7https://iopscience.iop.org/article/10.35848/1347-4065/ab8e05https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/document/9032106
