Operations research is relatively a new academic discipline. It is more concerned with coordinating and controlling the operations/activities in an organization. It plays an important role in decision-making. Its application covers a wide gamut of areas like industry, agriculture, business and other spheres of economy. It provides a quantitative technique and a scientific approach to the executives for making better decisions for operations under their control. This book has been specifically designed with minimum mathematical calculations, in order to help the students to understand the subject in an easy manner. It introduces various Operations Research Techniques and its applications along with an extensive coverage of OR theories and models. Every chapter of the book not only has a strong theoretical back up but also deals with an average of 25-30 illustrations and practical problems. The techniques used for analysis in this book would create awareness among the students and managers to use them as effective tools for planning, scheduling, cost control, project execution, resource allocation, etc. The present structure of the book would prove to be a reservoir of knowledge for the students. The book would be immensely useful to the students of Commerce, Management, Operations Research, Engineering, Economics, Statistics, etc., since their courses include either some or all of the topics discussed in the book. Contents Include: Introduction to Operations Research; Linear Programming ? Problem Formulation and Graphical Solutions; Linear Programming ? Simplex Method; Linear Programming ? Duality and Mixed Constraints; Assignment Models; Transportation Models; Game Theory; Replacement Theory; Inventory Models; Network Analysis
