The aim of the subject is to learn students how to think systemically, how to analyze the problem and, also, how to find the optimal decision/solution. Economic-mathematical models are used to solve real practical problems which are solved using information technologies. Two basic methods are presented to students: mathematical programming and network analysis. The outline of the subject is as follows:
1) Operational research - basic description, properties, classification.
2) Mathematical programming - structure of the model, methodology.
3) Linear programming - structure of the model, areas of application.
4) Linear programming - Graphical solution of LP problems.
5) Linear programming - canonical form of the model.
6) Linear programming - simplex method - algorithm and its description.
7) Linear programming - duality: usage and interpretation.
8) Linear programming - sensitivity analysis of LP results.
9) Multi-criteria linear programming
10) Network analysis - CPM method and its properties.
11) Network analysis - Network chart, reserves, critical path.
12) Network analysis - Feasibility of the project, cost analysis.
13) Network analysis - Gant linear diagram.
14) Network analysis - PERT method - involving the risk into projects.
