Title: Optimization in Operations Research by Ronald L. Rardin ISBN: 0-02-398415-5 Publisher: Prentice Hall Pub. Date: 05 August, 1997 Format: Hardcover Volumes: 1 List Price(USD): $118.00 |
Average Customer Rating: 5 (12 reviews)

Summary: This book is very clear and easier to read and understand.
Comment: In my work I needed to find the shortest path from a single point to a set of points. This book really helped me to find the suitable method: the Dijkstra algorithm. I began reading Chapter 9, which is "Shortest Paths and Discrete Dynamic Programming". The material is presented clearly and with relevant and adequate variety of examples. I haven't read the other chapters since they are not required for my work at this moment and I don't have ample time to make a full review; however, I can say this: My many years in research in several fields have often put me in a position of transfering mathematical algorithms in one field to another or to search for an effecient one. I frequently get a limited time period to do literature search and I usually page-read many books. This is one of the rare books which are easy to read and comprehend. I thank and congratulate the author for doing a wonderful service.

Summary: Excellent book
Comment: This is an excellent book for those who need to use the power of operations research methods (esp the newer algorithms, interior point methods etc.) but dont have the time to chew on pages of theory. Must congratulate the author on a job well done. Is it possible to bring out a cheaper paper back edition ? That would benefit the student and research community immensely.

Summary: PhD student in IE
Comment: If you are taking a graduate or an undergraduate course in OR, this book is a must! I have not seen ANY book able to present OR with such simple, direct examples and WITHOUT sacrificing theory.
This is the best written textbook I have ever read. When I compare it with the hundereds of dollars I spend on badly written books, even as a PG (poor graduate) student I would gladly pay twice of what this book is priced at.
