Operations research

The study of operations is focused on solving practical problems that can be described using a mathematical model. The book presents the main sections of the theory of operations research: mathematical programming (linear and non -linear, deterministic, heuristic and probabilistic dynamic), decision -making theory and games theory, mass -service theory, simulation modeling. This book can serve as a textbook on the theory and practical application of methods of researching operations. Each topic begins with introductory material available to students of the first courses, then the level of presentation is gradually increasing and designed for senior students and graduate students. At the end of each chapter, a set of complex tasks related to the subject is given, which significantly deepen and expand it
