Aim: 1. To give the students a general introduction to concepts and methods of Operational Research (OR), enabling them to analyse the potential for using quantitative OR-methods on a concrete problem, and giving them a good background for further OR studies. 2. To enable the students to use simple OR-methods for solving decision or planning problems. Special emphasis is placed on giving the students a good knowledge of Linear Programming (LP), i.e. problem formulation and optimisation using a linear model. LP is often applied as a practical tool of optimisation, and it forms an important ingredient of several advanced optimisation methods.
