Operations Research
Basic text on deterministic optimization methods. Techniques of modeling real world decision making problems, modeling examples that illustrate the use of modeling techniques, and a variety of problem classes are presented. Various types of algorithms with explanations of how each algorithm works and what conclusion can be drawn from its output, and a review of Matrix Algebra and Geometry and a chapter on Heuristic Methods.
Linear Programming
Formulation of linear programming; the simplex method; geometry of the simplex method; duality in linear programming; revised (primal) simplex method; the dual simplex method; numerically stable forms of the simplex method; parametric linear programs; sensitivity analysis; degeneracy in linear programming; bounded-variable linear programs; the decomposition principle of linear programming; the transportation problem; computational complexity of the simplex algorithm; the ellipsoid method; iterative methods for linear inequalities and linear programs; vector minima.
Network Programming
This book covers the significant advances in network flow methods ranging across modeling, applications, algorithms, their implementations, and computational complexity. It deals with the problems faced on network structures that can be handled by linear programming techniques or their adaptations. It is particularly useful for professionals involved in mathematical programming and linear programming in the areas of operations research, industrial engineering, other branches of engineering and business applications.
Models for Optimum Decision Making
This book considers the problem of determining how many barrels of crude oil an oil-producing and exporting country should produce annually for export―along with several other important problems that decision-makers in the crude oil industry face―and discusses procedures for finding optimum solutions for them. It considers the important Objective Functions they need in making these critical decisions, and discusses procedures to find the best solutions. Outputs from the treatment units, in an oil refinery are only semi-finished products; these are blended into finished products like gasoline, diesel oil, etc., meeting various specifications that the marketplace demands. The book discusses models for solving these problems optimally with examples.
Applications of Operations Research and Management Science
This book includes case studies that examine the application of operations research to improve or increase efficiency in industry and operational activities. This collection of “living case studies” is all based on the author’s 30-year career of consulting and advisory work. These true-to life industrial applications illustrate the research and development of solutions, as well as potential implementation and integration problems that may occur when adopting these methods into a business. Among the topics covered in the chapters include optimization in circuit board manufacturing, Decision Support System (DSS) for plant loading and dispatch planning, as well as development of important test procedures for tyre and pharma industry with shelf life constraints. In particular, the study on deckle optimization should be of great help to managers in paper industry and consultants for development of deckle optimization software. The application of operations research throughout the industry makes it an ideal guide for industrial executives, professionals and practitioners responsible for quality and productivity improvement.
Mathematical Programming and Game Theory for Decision Making
This edited book presents recent developments and state-of-the-art review in various areas of mathematical programming and game theory. It is a peer-reviewed research monograph under the ISI Platinum Jubilee Series on Statistical Science and Interdisciplinary Research. This volume provides a panoramic view of theory and the applications of the methods of mathematical programming to problems in statistics, finance, games and electrical networks. It also provides an important as well as timely overview of research trends and focuses on the exciting areas like support vector machines, bilevel programming, interior point method for convex quadratic programming, cooperative games, non-cooperative...
Case Studies in Operations Research
This textbook is comprised of detailed case studies covering challenging real world applications of OR techniques. Among the overall goals of the book is to provide readers with descriptions of the history and other background information on a variety of industries, service or other organizations in which decision making is an important component of their daily operations. The book considers all methods of optimum decision making in order to improve performances. It also compares possible solutions obtained by different approaches, concluding with a recommendation of the best among them for implementation. By exposing students to a variety of applications in a variety of areas and explaining...
Optimization Concepts and Applications in Engineering
In this revised and enhanced second edition of Optimization Concepts and Applications in Engineering, the already robust pedagogy has been enhanced with more detailed explanations, an increased number of solved examples and end-of-chapter problems. The source codes are now available free on multiple platforms. It is vitally important to meet or exceed previous quality and reliability standards while at the same time reducing resource consumption. This textbook addresses this critical imperative integrating theory, modeling, the development of numerical methods, and problem solving, thus preparing the student to apply optimization to real-world problems. This text covers a broad variety of optimization problems using: unconstrained, constrained, gradient, and non-gradient techniques; duality concepts; multiobjective optimization; linear, integer, geometric, and dynamic programming with applications; and finite element-based optimization. It is ideal for advanced undergraduate or graduate courses and for practising engineers in all engineering disciplines, as well as in applied mathematics.
