OPERATING RESEARCH - II (Key Issues with QM Software Applications)

This book has been prepared for students studying in universities and military schools, especially in the departments of Industrial, Business and Systems engineering, and in departments such as Business Administration, Economics, Econometrics and Mathematics. The aim of the book is to provide the students with the opportunity of a textbook, where they can learn quantitative models and techniques that will help them in solving the decision-making problems they will encounter in the effective, economic and efficient use of resources such as people, materials and machinery in school and future business life.
One of the most important features of this book is that each subject is illustrated with a large number of problem solutions and computer applications are made with QM software at the end of the chapters, again with plenty of examples.
The book is the continuation and complement of our book titled “OPERATIONAL RESEARCH-I Computer Aided Linear and Parametric Programming”, volume 1, and includes computer aided solution examples of decision-making problems that may be encountered in industry and service enterprises, public institutions and the armed forces.
