COURSE DESCRIPTION

Industrial Engineering-Operations Research, Deterministic Models (3) (3,0)         (IME 415)

Spring Semester 2008

 

 

2007-08 Catalog Data:

415 - 3 Operations Research, Deterministic Models. (Same as OR 440) Linear programming, problem formulation, simplex algorithm, transportation and network problems, duality theory, and sensitivity theory. Prerequisite(s): Knowledge of computer programming, MATH 250, or consent of instructor.

 

 

Textbook(s):

Wayne L. Winston, Operations Research: Applications and Algorithms, 4th Edition, 2008, Duxbury Press.

 

 

Coordinator:

Cem Karacal, Ph.D, Professor of Industrial & Manufacturing Engineering.

 

 

Objectives:

This course introduces the students to the mathematical modeling techniques to determine optimum solution of constrained resource allocation problems. Various forms of resource allocation problems, their solution techniques, and underlying mathematical theories are discussed with the help of examples from manufacturing, service and distribution industries.

 

 

Topics and Schedule:

1. Operations Research, modeling and problem formulation (6 hours).
2. Graphical approach to linear programming (4 hours).
3. The Simplex method (6 hours).
4. Duality theory and sensitivity analysis (6 hours).
5. The transportation, trans-shipments, and assignment problems (6 hours).
6. Network analysis, PERT, CPM (6 hours).
7. Dynamic Programming (6 hours).
8. Integer Programming (5 hours if time permits).

 

 

Professional Component:

This course introduces essential modeling concepts and their solution methods to senior-level engineering students. The course is an engineering topics course with some engineering design content.

 

 

Course Outcomes

On completion of this course students will:

1.   1. Develop Skills for Modeling & Problem Formulation

2.   2. Understand How to Use Simplex Algorithm

3.   3. Understand How to Use Transportation Algorithm

4.   4. Be able to do Sensitivity Analysis
