<br/><br/>What is operations research? -- Modeling with linear programming -- The simplex method and sensitvity analysis -- Duality and post-optimal analysis -- Transportation model and its variant -- Network model -- Advanced linear programming -- Goal programming -- Integer linear programming -- Heuristic programming -- Traveling salesperson problem (TSP) -- Deterministic dynamic programming -- Inventory modeling (with introduction to supply chains) -- Review of basic probability -- Decision analysis and games -- Probabilistic inventory models -- Markov chains -- Queuing systems -- Simulation modeling -- Classical optimization theory -- Nonlinear programming algorithms. 
<br/><br/> 'Operations Research' provides a broad focus on algorithmic and practical implementation of Operations Research (OR) techniques, using theory, applications, and computations to teach students OR basics. The book can be used conveniently in a survey course that encompasses all the major tools of operations research, or in two separate courses on deterministic and probabilistic decision-making. The author preserves classical algorithms by providing essential hand computational algorithms as an important part of OR history.
