Therefore, the goal of an OR study should be to conduct the study in an optimal
manner, regardless of whether this involves finding an optimal solution for the
model. Thus, in addition to pursuing the science of the ultimate, the team should ...

Briefly, the most common type of application involves the general problem of
allocating limited resources among competing activities in a best possible (i.e.,
optima!) way. More precisely, this problem involves selecting the level of certain ...

One of these applications involves the revised simplex method. As described in
the preceding section (see Table 5.8), this method used B' and the initial tableau
to calculate all the relevant numbers in the current tableau for every iteration.
