The First IEEE UV2022 Mathematical Modelling Competition: Backgrounds and Problems

Economic growth, people's health, and urban development face challenges in the post-epidemic era. How to promote high-quality and sustainable urban development, improve citizens' sense of happiness, and solve problems in city management have become a heated and crucial topic. Mathematical modeling is a research method that uses mathematical symbols to express practical problems, establish mathematical models, and then propose solutions. The $1^{s t}$ IEEE UV2022 Mathematical Modelling Competition is a satellite activity of the $6^{t h}$ IEEE International Conference on Universal Village, which expects participants to use mathematical modeling methods for practical problems and provide guidelines for sustainable social progress. This short paper introduces the background of the competition and publishes the problems to be solved.
