Course Handout Part II
In addition to part-I (General Handout for all courses appended to the timetable), this portion gives
further specific details regarding the course.
Course No. : MATH F242
Course Title : OPERATIONS RESERACH
Instructor-in-charge : Sajith P.
Instructors : Sajith P., Amya Ranjan Ray, Santanu Kumar Dash
1. Scopes and Objective of the Course:
This course begins with applications overview of Operations Research, and introduces
dynamic programming and network models. After a review of probability distributions,
inventory models and queuing systems will be covered. Decision- making under certainty,
risk, and uncertainty; along with an introduction to game theory will be dealt. Finally
simulation techniques, introduction for estimating solutions to problems, that are not amenable
to conventional solution techniques, will be made. Students will also be taught the basic
concepts on system reliability.
