Course Objective and Content

Course Objectives:

This course is the first step in modeling and optimizing real-life systems. It aims to introduce students to linear programming problems (LPP) and to teach the solution methods of different LPPs . Students will also be familiar with concepts such as sensitivity analysis and duality , and will learn to apply LP to problems such as networking, assignment, and transport.

Course Content:

Introduction to operations research and linear programming (LP); graphical methods and applications; interpretation of graphical method results; graphical sensitivity analysis; simplex method and its applications; interpretation of simplex results; simplex sensitivity analysis; Using computer software in solving LP problems; duality ( duplicity ); transportation and assignment problems and solution algorithms; network problems and solution algorithms;

Learning Outcomes

The students who have succeeded in this course;
1) 1) Understand the concepts of modeling and optimization and distinguish between various optimization models
2) 2) Develop linear programming (DP) models using a real-life system problem definition
3) 3) Understand and apply different solution algorithms associated with linear programming problems ( DPPs ).
4) 4) Uses at least one software and/or decoder plugin to deal with DP issues.
5) 5) Critically analyze, interpret and present DP solutions in an understandable way.
6) 6) Applies DP to different advanced problems.
