Introduction to operations research: system, model and model types, OR principles, model structureDecision making techniques: linear programming and goal programmingModel semantics: structure of a model, decision variables, model objectives, model constraintsModel construction: mathematical formulation of a number of sample forestry problems in linear programming (LP) techniquesModel solution: graphical solution of LP model, matrix generation, basic steps of Simplex Method, special cases in solving an LP model with simplex method (degeneracy, multiple optimal solution, unbounded problems and infeasible solution) Duality and sensitivity analysis: duality concept, sensitivity of constraints, sensitivity of coefficients in the objective function, and introduction of a new product. Goal programming: model construction, multiple goals, priorities, achievement function, target deviations, solving a goal programming model with a modified simplex method |
