Methods of operations research

de Philip M. Morse, George E. Kimball

Operations research originated during World War II with the military's need for a scientific method of providing executive departments with a quantitative decision-making basis. This volume — co-written by the father of operations research — explores strategical kinematics, tactical analysis, gunnery and bombardment problems, organizational and procedural problems, more. Includes 51 figures and 31 tables.
