The Center for Operations Research and Econometrics (CORE) is a research center of the Université catholique de Louvain (UCL), Belgium.
CORE’s activities integrate fundamental and applied research; they are oriented towards:
- theoretical and methodological research that aims at providing frameworks for the analysis of a wide range of decision problems arising out of economic policy and management of private and public enterprises
- the development of Methods of Optimisation and Statistical Inference leading to the solution of decision problems, once the appropirate framework of analysis has been provided
- the development of Computational tools (algorithms and computer programs), whereby the above methods are made operational for use in empirical studies.
