ENMA - 603 - Operations Research (Fall 2006)

 

 

Course Description: Introduction to Operations Research. Creating and applying deterministic and stochastic models for decision making. Topics include: optimization methods; linear and other programming models; network analysis; inventory analysis; queuing theory; Markov processes; risk and uncertainty analysis; Monte Carlo simulation.

Course Objectives: To provide students with a basic understanding and competence in the development, formulation and analysis of deterministic and stochastic models. After completion of this course, students will be able to a) analyze data from real world scenarios, b) formulate models to describe data, c) apply appropriate techniques to solve models, and d) understand solutions to make informative decisions.
