Addressing the importance of the algorithm design process, Deterministic Operations Research focuses on the design of solution methods for both continuous and discrete linear optimization problems.

The students should have solid college-level knowledge of linear algebra, analysis, and probability, and good programming skills. Students who aspire to doctoral study in Operations Research but need ...

Operations research applies sophisticated statistical analysis and mathematical modeling to solve an array of business and organizational problems, as well as improve decision-making.

An introduction to a range of Operations Research techniques, covering: foundations of linear programming, including the simplex method and duality; integer programming; markov chains; queueing theory ...

The scientific temper of operations research creates a near-ideal competitive landscape. The progress should be attributed to a combination of openness and scientific skepticism.

The nutritional balance of the raw materials selected by goal programming showed a marked improvement over that selected by linear programming. The Editorial Policy of the Journal of the Operational ...

In this paper we report on the solution to optimality of 10 large-scale zero-one linear programming problems. All problem data come from real-world industrial applications and are characterized by ...

RiverWare automatically generates and efficiently solves a multiobjective, preemptive linear goal programming formulation of a reservoir system. An advanced feature of RiverWare is that both the ...
