Joint research connecting AI and everyday services.
ABOUT THE CENTER
Built together.
Research with a practical purpose.
On 3 August 2026, following consultation with HIRUCORE and a decision by the Institute for Management Decision and Evaluation at Harbin Institute of Technology (哈工大管理决策与评价研究所), the HIRUCORE Research Center for AI and Public Service Innovation was established within the institute.
Jointly developed by the two parties, the center works on decision research, evaluation consulting, technology applications, research commercialization and talent exchange in AI and everyday services.
The center focuses on research, while the company develops products and manages commercial operations.

RESEARCH DIRECTIONS
Three research directions
We define research questions around labor-intensive processes and complex fulfillment in real service operations.
Operations Optimization
QuestionHow should capacity, dispatch and routes adapt to variable demand when delivery and empty-bottle collection take place together?
ApproachOperations research, integer programming and Demand Forecasting, with dynamic capacity allocation.
ApplicationLast-mile two-way logistics for bottled water and empty-bottle returns.
AI industry applications
QuestionHow can AI Agent, computing resources, computing–energy coordination and industry models be applied in practice?
ApproachFollow industry developments and develop analytical perspectives.
ApplicationIndustry commentary covering advanced equipment, computing and storage, AI education and computing–energy coordination.
Research commercialization
QuestionHow can academic models become commercially deployable engineering systems?
ApproachJoint research, simulation and industry pilots with academic institutes.
ApplicationDevelop technical proposals and planned research outputs to support product engineering.
PARTNERSHIP
Joint research with an academic institute
We collaborate with the Institute for Management Decision and Evaluation at Harbin Institute of Technology (哈工大管理决策与评价研究所) on delivery-dispatch algorithms, connecting research, simulation and field pilots.
01
Research
Model Operations Optimization, integer programming and Demand Forecasting.
02
Simulation
