Fundamentals of Network Analysis and Flow Optimization - Alberto Garcia-Diaz - Bog

Book Special Features

· This book presents a clear exposition of the fundamental theory, procedures, and applications of network analysis with emphasis on flow optimization.
· This book was written for two key audiences. It can serve as a textbook on theory and applications of network models for advanced undergraduate students and graduate students, especially Master's students and introductory level Ph.D. students in industrial engineering, business and operations research academic programs. The textbook is also intended to be used as a valuable resource for practitioners in these areas.
· The book offers a wide, well-balanced and comprehensive topical coverage that includes both the theoretical basis of network optimization and network analysis tools that are outside the boundaries of network flow optimization, a short introduction of Stochastic Network Flow using the Graphical Evaluation and Review Technique (GERT)and several useful applications, network reliability, and project management methodologies.
· The license-free use of a Network Optimization Program (NOP) to solve all problems included in this book.
