Operations Research: An Introduction, Global Edition Paperback – 28 November 2016
Purchase options and add-ons
For courses in Operations Research.
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.
With the 10th Edition, the author preserves classical algorithms by providing essential hand computational algorithms as an important part of OR history. Based on input and submissions from OR students, professors, and practitioners, the author also includes scenarios that show how classical algorithms can be beneficial in practice. These entries are included as Aha! Moments with each dealing with stories, anecdotes, and issues in OR theory, applications, computations, and teaching methodology that can advance the understanding of fundamental OR concepts.

1.0 out of 5 stars Horrible Book- hands off!
Verified PurchaseWe had to order the book for our operations research class and I am more than disappointed! The book is very confusing since there sre different types of numberings. (E.G.: 4.6 comed before 4.4. and then all of a sudden there is 4-43.. the entire order makes just no sense. Besides that...there are no solutions provided, so if you don’t know the answer- you will never figure out. If I hadn’t to buy it I can only say keep your hands off! Definitely not worth the money!!
