商品描述

This text is an introduction to Operations Management. Three themes are woven throughout the book: optimization or trying to do the best we can, managing tradeoffs between conflicting objectives, and dealing with uncertainty. After a brief introduction, the text reviews the fundamentals of probability including commonly used discrete and continuous distributions and functions of a random variable. The next major section, beginning in Chapter 7, examines optimization. The key fundamentals of optimization--inputs, decision variables, objective(s), and constraints--are introduced. Optimization is applied to linear regression, basic inventory modeling, and the newsvendor problem, which incorporates uncertain demand. Linear programming is then introduced. We show that the newsvendor problem can be cast as a network flow linear programming problem. Linear programming is then applied to the problem of redistributing empty rental vehicles (e.g., bicycles) at the end of a day and the problem of assigning students to seminars. Several chapters deal with location models as examples of both simple optimization problems and integer programming problems. The next major section focuses on queueing theory including single-and multi-server queues. This section also introduces a numerical method for solving for key performance metrics for a common class of queueing problems as well as simulation modeling. Finally, the text ends with a discussion of decision theory that again integrates notions of optimization, tradeoffs, and uncertainty analysis. The text is designed for anyone with a modest mathematical background. As such, it should be readily accessible to engineering students, economics, statistics, and mathematics majors, as well as many business students.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

這段文字是關於運營管理的介紹。書中貫穿著三個主題:優化(optimization),即盡力做到最好;管理(tradeoffs)在相互衝突的目標之間的取捨;以及應對(uncertainty)不確定性。在簡短的介紹之後,文本回顧了概率的基本概念,包括常用的離散和連續分佈以及隨機變量的函數。接下來的主要部分,從第七章開始,探討優化。優化的關鍵基本概念——輸入、決策變量、目標和約束——將被介紹。優化應用於線性回歸、基本庫存建模以及包含不確定需求的新聞販賣者問題(newsvendor problem)。然後介紹線性規劃。我們展示了新聞販賣者問題可以被轉化為一個網絡流線性規劃問題。接著,線性規劃應用於在一天結束時重新分配空的租賃車輛(例如,自行車)以及將學生分配到研討會的問題。幾個章節處理位置模型,作為簡單優化問題和整數規劃問題的例子。下一個主要部分專注於排隊理論,包括單伺服器和多伺服器排隊。這一部分還介紹了一種數值方法,用於解決一類常見排隊問題的關鍵性能指標,以及模擬建模。最後,文本以決策理論的討論結束,再次整合了優化、取捨和不確定性分析的概念。該文本旨在為具有適度數學背景的任何人所設計。因此,它應該對工程學生、經濟學、統計學和數學專業的學生,以及許多商業學生來說都是容易理解的。

作者簡介

Mark S. Daskin is the immediate past Department Chair of the Industrial and Operations Engineering Department at the University of Michigan. He holds the Clyde W. Johnson Collegiate Professorship. Prior to joining the faculty at Michigan in 2010, Daskin was on the faculty at Northwestern University (for 30 years) and the University of Texas (for a year and a half).

He received his Ph.D. from the Civil Engineering Department at M.I.T. in 1978. He also holds a B.S.C.E. degree from that department and a Certificate of Post-Graduate Study in Engineering from the University of Cambridge in England.

His research focuses on the application and development of operations research techniques for the analysis of health care problems, as well as transportation, supply chain, and manufacturing problems. He is the author of over 80 refereed papers and of two books: Network and Discrete Location: Models, Algorithms and Applications (John Wiley, 1995; second edition, 2013) and Service Science (John Wiley, 2010), winner of the IIE Joint Publishers Book of the Year Award in 2011.

Daskin received the Frank and Lillian Gilbreth Award from the Institute of Industrial and Systems Engineers in 2021. He was elected to the U.S. National Academy of Engineering in 2017. He is a Fellow of both INFORMS and IIE and has received the David F. Baker Distinguished Research Award, the Technical Innovation Award and the Fred C. Crane Award for Distinguished Service from IIE as well as the Kimball Medal for service to the society and the profession from INFORMS. He received the Lifetime Achievement Award in Location Analysis from the Section on Location Analysis of INFORMS in 2014. He is a past editor-in-chief of both IIE Transaction and Transportation Science. In 2006, he was the president of INFORMS. He served as the chair of the Department of Industrial Engineering and Management Sciences at Northwestern University from 1995-2001.
