This book is an easy guide for the lecturers and students. It helps in choosing the appropriate quantitative analysis techniques, applying the technique, making decision according to outcomes, and conducting the sensitivity analysis. This is an introductory book of operations research covers linear programming graphical solution, simplex method, integer programming, transportation problem, decision making models, and decision tree. At the beginning of each chapter the learning outcomes are listed, and review questions at the end of each chapter.
