Course Objective |
本課程的目的在教導學生將問題或事件經由邏輯的分析，並且系統化後，納入數學模式，應用數學方法加以解答。此種程序通常用於在受時間、空間及資源限制下，爭取最有效的調配方法，以達到最大的效益。
Learn to systematically analyze the problem of concern, formulate the problem into mathematical models, and find the optimal solution using available techniques and software packages.
Three-hour weekly lectures and lab exercises will be given to facilitate your learning of fundamental principles and basics to operations research with the emphasis on optimization. The three-hour lecture will usually be divided into 2 parts: the lecture of theory and lab practice with software tools. Lab and homework assignments will be given in a regular basis. It is expected that students will in general spend about 5-8 hours every week after the class to comprehend the subject and complete assignments. It is highly encouraged to have discussions in lectures. |
