Operations Research Calculations Handbook 2nd Edition
Operations Research Calculations Handbook 2nd Edition uses analyses and techniques from a variety of branches of mathematics, statistics, and other scientific disciplines. Certain analytical results arise repeatedly in applications of operations research to industrial and service operations. These results are scattered among many different textbooks and journal articles, sometimes in the midst of extensive derivations. The idea for a handbook of operations research results came from a need to have frequently used results to be readily available in one source of reference.
Operations Research Calculations Handbook 2nd Edition is a compilation of analytical results and formulas that have been found useful in various applications. The objective is to provide students, researchers, and practitioners with convenient access to wide range of operations research results in a concise format. Given the extensive variety of applications of operations research, a collection of results cannot be exhaustive. The selection of results included in this handbook is based on experience in the manufacturing industry. Many of the results are basic to system modeling, and are likely to carry over to applications in other areas of operations research and management science.

The field of operations research encompasses a growing number of technical areas. The scope of the second edition has been expanded to cover several additional topics. These include new chapters on order statistics, heuristic search methods, and traffic flow and delay. Some chapters have also been updated with new material, and many new references have been added.As before, the focus is on presenting handy analytical results and formulas that allow quick calculations and provide the understanding of system models.
