Revised and updated to reflect recent advances, Introduction to the Mathematics of Operations Research with Mathematica®, Second Edition focuses on the topics of graph theory, linear programming, stochastic processes, and dynamic programming. Integrating technology into the development, this second edition features a CD-ROM with Mathematica, the program used throughout the text. It also offers new material in areas such as simulation, Brownian motion, and famous graph theory problems such as the traveling salesman problem. Further enhancing the interactive approach of the book, the author emphasizes problem solving with longer investigations, self-check questions, problem sets, and an appendix of solutions for selected problems.
