Product Description

Product Description

For over four decades, Introduction to Operations Research by Frederick Hillier has been the classic text on operations research. While building on the classic strengths of the text, the author continues to find new ways to make the text current and relevant to students. One way is by incorporating a wealth of state-of-the-art, user-friendly software and more coverage of business applications than ever before. The hallmark features of this edition include clear and comprehensive coverage of fundamentals, an extensive set of interesting problems and cases, and state-of-the-practice operations research software used in conjunction with examples from the text.

The website will include solutions, 100 worked examples, articles, a testbank, companion software, and eight bonus chapters as well as case studies.

A delight! 19 Jan 2012
Format:Paperback
An extremely well-written introduction to Operations Research. Includes many examples, intuition behind the maths and a very helpful site that aids you greatly in the learning process. As a CS grad I had no problem to keep up with any part of the book.

I recommend this book wholeheartedly, without any reservation whatsoever!

This book could be the best book for someone who interested in operations research at their start line. It goes over most of the typical Operations Research topics and explain wordy but crystal clear plain explanation. As an experienced reader in OR like me, this book looks nothing but an introduction book. That's not true. If I confuse some point, I always go back to basic and refresh my mind with nice and clear explanation on each chapters. So I strongly recommend this book as a great motivational book who want to get into OR world. Math knowledge will not be helpful.
