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 ...

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.

We review the early history of linear programming with respect to the solution of linear equations, computer developments, and its origins within the federal government. With over 12,500 members from ...

Type of Research: Operations Research Motivation for Research: Large combinatorial optimization problems involve an exponentially growing decision space, where finding a good solution often becomes ...

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.

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