Contraportada

This book presents the principal concepts of operations research (OR) as tools for the planning, support and management of various types of networks, including both physical and logical networks.

Or analyzes real problems in two stages: the formalization of a mathematical model, followed by a solution procedure, which is in general algorithmic. it therefore consists of a collection of models for many application areas, together with the corresponding solution techniques. there are two important categories of models: those based on an algebraic formalism and those using the concepts of graphs. both concepts are presented in detail in this book, along with general solution 0rocedures. Following this, important application areas are addressed, such as project scheduling, distribution networks, telecommunication networks, and planning of satellite imaging. Anyone involved in the theory or practice in this field will fins this a vital resource.
