Optimization in Operations Research |
|
|
From Book News, Inc.
Intended as an introductory undergraduate/graduate operations research text for students in engineering, mathematics, programming, and management (as an elective), Rardin (industrial engineering, Purdue U.) expounds primarily on the mathematical programming half of OR with deterministic optimization modeling as central. Intended to be a pragmatic guide to problem-solving with such models, and planning and design applications in all flavors of programming (linear... >> |

Introduction to Mathematical Programming |
|
|
From Book News, Inc.
This is a text written for business students with the mathematical background to make an occasional departure from an emphasis on applications. It could serve as the text for a variety of courses, such as linear programming, optimization, quantitative methods for management, or operations research. Chapters and appendices include examples using LINDO and LINGO packages, the symbolic mathematics package Maple, and an introduction to the TI-82 and TI-92 graphing c... >> |

Entropy Optimization and Mathematical Programming (International Series in Operations Research & Management Science, 8) |
|
|
From Book News, Inc.
Following an introduction to the concept of entropy and entropy optimization principles and a discussion of practical applications in selected fields, chapters discuss methods for solving entropy optimization problems subject to linear constraints; problems with quadratic, entropic, and general convex constraints; the entropic perturbation approach to solving several important classes of mathematical programming problems; and the relation between entropy optimiz... >> |
