Warren Powell is Chief Analytics Officer of Optimal Dynamics and Professor Emeritus from Princeton University, where he taught and served as a faculty member in the Department of Operations Research and Financial Engineering since 1981.  In the 1980s Powell designed and wrote SYSNET, an interactive optimization model for load planning at Yellow Freight System, where it is still in use after 25 years. He is the founder of Princeton Transportation Consulting Group, which marketed the model as SuperSPIN, stabilizing an industry where 80% of companies went bankrupt in the first post-deregulation decade. SuperSPIN was used in the planning of American Freightways (which became FedEx Freight) and Overnight Transportation (which became UPS Freight). In 1990 Powell founded CASTLE Laboratory which spans research in computational stochastic optimization with applications initially in transportation and logistics. In 2011 he then founded the Princeton laboratory for ENergy Systems Analysis (PENSA) to tackle the rich array of problems in energy systems analysis, and in 2013: this morphed into “CASTLE Labs,” focusing on computational stochastic optimization and learning. In 2017 Powell founded Optimal Dynamics, helping carriers to automate and optimize trucking networks using AI.  Motivated by these applications, he developed a method for bridging dynamic programming with math programming to solve very high-dimensional stochastic, dynamic programs using the modeling and algorithmic framework of approximate dynamic programming. He identified four fundamental classes of policies for solving sequential decision problems, integrating fields such as stochastic programming, dynamic programming (including approximate dynamic programming/reinforcement learning), robust optimization, optimal control and stochastic search (to name a few). This work identified a new class of policy called a parametric cost function approximation. His work in industry is balanced by contributions to the theory of stochastic optimization, and machine learning.

In this episode of the Thoughtful Software Podcast, Andrew and Fahad discuss team building in software, hiring methods for creating the best team possible, ways to screen for the best cross-functional candidates, and proven methods for instilling quality leadership to help train and mentor junior developers to be the next wave of industry leaders. Show NotesHow to build teams for application and development. How should development teams be built from a non-technical founder or executive standpoint?Start by looking at the size and maturity of the organization. Is there a technical founder? What is the maturity of that technical founder? Small organizations and startups should begin with Dynamic Programming languages such as Python or JavaScript. While these languages enable speed they do not often work at scale (number of coders working). Hiring top talent without paying them what Google or Netflix can offer requires new and exciting programming languages like Rust where people can come and learn.Once hiring is figured out then the question becomes "How fast do we want to move?" Senior developers are going to move more slowly than junior developers because they often make better decisions and take their time because they have suffered through bad decisions before. Larger companies can afford to move slower whereas startups may not.The last thing in hiring that must be considered is leadership. First are People Leaders - Managers, Directors, VP's. Second, are Tech Leaders - Engineers, Architects. Most startups need one technical leader.The people being hired in a startup must have a growth mindset or it will crush your team.Hiring at the enterprise level is designed to throw bodies at a problem, they are building to hedge against risk and return money to their shareholders. How can you screen for good candidates? Asking the right questions at the start: "Tell me why you picked this one technology and give me your reasons for doing so?"  Asking someone to defend their choices is the best to understand why people make choices.How important is it now for developers to be cross-functional and understand the context of their code, not just the latest and greatest languages? Understanding the business you are in is important. As a leader, you have to understand where the company is going and where the market might force you to go. Any single agenda can't supersede that of the business. What Does a Good Technical Mentorship Look Like? Pairing on programming is very helpful and explaining and working through errors together with junior engineers rather than leaving a note is a great learning experience. Enabling engineers to confidently sell their ideas and training them to execute. Let people make the mistakes and then help them learn from those mistakes is the constructive loop needed. Great leaders are always training their replacements.Hiring Remote will help optimizing business. Thanks for listening! What did you think about this episode?

Anthony Corso is a Ph.D. student in the Aeronautics and Astronautics Department at Stanford University where he is advised by Professor Mykel Kochenderfer in the Stanford Intelligent Systems Laboratory (SISL). He studies approaches for the validation of safety-critical autonomous systems with an emphasis on interpretability and scalability. In this podcast he talked about safety-validation of autonomous systems. The latter includes systems such as robots, cars, aircraft, and planetary rovers equally. In May he published a paper which deals with different algorithms for black-box safety validation. One of the approaches is to use reinforcement learning, which was discussed in the podcast in more detail. He also briefly introduced the Next-Generation Airborne Collision Avoidance System ACAS X, in which development Professor Kochenderfer was heavily involved. ACAS X takes advantage of Dynamic Programming, an algorithm for optimal decision making. The mentioned papers, further readings and an interesting podcast can be found here: The paper mentioned above: A Survey of Algorithms for Black-Box Safety Validation The paper on Adaptive Stress Testing (AST): Adaptive stress testing with reward augmentation for autonomous vehicle validation The AST toolbox mentioned in the podcast: AST-Toolbox The CARLA simulator mentioned in the podcast: CARLA A paper on ACAS X: Next-Generation Airborne Collision Avoidance System An episode of Standford University's podcast The Future of Everything with Mykel Kochenderfer where he talkes about ACAS X and Artificial Intelligence (AI) in safety-critical systems: Mykel Kochenderfer: AI and safety-critical systems --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/safetycorner/message

In this last episode of the season we continue our discussion of dynamic programming, and show just how efficient it can be by using the Fibonacci sequence! Based on Vaidehi Joshi's blog post, "Less Repetition, More Dynamic Programming".

In this episode we talk about different paradigms and approaches to algorithmic design: the Divide and Conquer Algorithm, the Greedy Algorithm, and the Dynamic Programming Algorithm, which remembers the subproblems that it has seen and solved before so as not to repeat doing the same thing over again. Based on Vaidehi Joshi's blog post, "Less Repetition, More Dynamic Programming".
