Product Description

Book Description

Significantly revised, this book provides balanced coverage of the theory, applications, and computations of operations research. The applications and computations in operations research are emphasized. Significantly revised, this text streamlines the coverage of the theory, applications, and computations of operations research. Numerical examples are effectively used to explain complex mathematical concepts.  A separate chapter of fully analyzed applications aptly demonstrates the diverse use of OR. The popular commercial and tutorial software AMPL, Excel, Excel Solver, and Tora are used throughout the book to solve practical problems and to test theoretical concepts.  New materials include Markov chains, TSP heuristics, new LP models, and a totally new simplex-based approach to LP sensitivity analysis.  

From the Publisher

Major revision is designed to meet the needs of beginning through advanced students with an emphasis placed on the formulation and applications aspects. Provides balanced coverage of theory, applications and computations of operations research techniques. Numerical examples are main vehicle for explaining new ideas with each numeric example followed by a set of problems. TORA and SIMNET software included in text. More than 1,000 problems. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

5.0 out of 5 stars Good Introductory book, Dec 28 2001
By 
This review is from: Operations Research: An Introduction (Hardcover)
Introductory book for operations research. But after you get what OR is about, you should learn Linear, Non linear and Integer programming separately.

This book tells how to solve a Linear programming problem but not why this way? I strongly recommend Bazaara 's Lp book to know the mechanism of Simplex method. But the discussion about various OR topics like transportaion, Assignment problems is excellent.

I got interested in OR reading this so I am sure all of you will like it.

5.0 out of 5 stars I used since 1985, Jun 13 2001
By 
This review is from: Operations Research: An Introduction (Hardcover)
The book of Taha has used it for but of 15 years in my courses of operations research has been of great utility in the career of Industrial Engineering, in the system of technological institutes in Mexico, personally I believe that professors Taha, Hillier and Liberman have been a very important support for the teaching of this part of the application of the mathematics, besides other, to all my recognition, the details if there are errors and if the contents are or non frontier of the science, is to each professor's approach that she/he teaches and she/he investigates, to make emphasis in some or others.
