MTH 390 - Methods in Operations Research

Institution:

Farmingdale State College

Subject:

Description:

This course is intended to focus on understanding, formulating, and solving deterministic models in operations research. Maximum and Minimum Linear Programming problems will be studied graphically and theoretically. The Simplex Method, Sensitivity Analysis and Duality will be covered and an indepth analysis of the reasoning on which these topics are based will be given. Instruction in computer software techniques will be presented to solve Linear Programming problems, using the simplex method and sensitivity analysis. Transportation Problems, Integer Programming, or Markov Chains will be covered. In order to enhance quantitative reasoning, the course emphasizes the formulation of mathematical models commonly used by operation research analysts, as well as the theoretical and computer software solutions to these models. Prerequisite(s): BUS 240 or MTH 103 or MTH 110 or MTH 102 or MTH 360 or equivalent (3,0) 3 credits Fall, Spring
