This text's emphasis is on presenting management science in a manner that is managerially focused and easily understood by students. This is done in part by using easy-to-understand examples demonstrating each technique in understandable contexts. The text is application oriented dealing with realistic problems emphasizing model formulation, computer-based solutions, and implementation of model results. The text uses models related to managerial application, which are used to demonstrate management science techniques. Techniques are illustrated by examples placed in a decision-making context. Model use is demonstrated by the computer without being tied to specific computer systems. The text presents a comprehensive yet easily readable coverage of all important management science techniques.

<p>The purpose of this text is to provide the student with a comprehensive coverage of how management science concepts and approaches can be applied to improve management decision-making. The emphasis is on the translation of mathematical modeling concepts into a presentation that is palatable to the undergraduate student of business with limited mathematical background. Manage¬ment science topics are introduced by presenting realistic, practical examples in the form of small case studies. Difficult techniques are presented within the framework of working examples, stressing an intuitive understanding of concepts in the decision support perspective rather than focusing on mathematical techniques for their own sake.</p>

Introduction to Management Science, 3e

Cengage Learning'

In this introduction to operations management, the authors' premise is that it cannot be practised in isolation from other management resources, but rather is closely integrated with human, technological and system resources. The course has traditionally been heavily weighted toward the production and manufacturing industries, but has begun to broaden its scope to include the service industry, and the book reflects this trend. Ancillary package available upon adoption.

<p>Convergenomics is about the megatrends that are shaping how people behave and organizations work. In this insightful analysis, Sang Lee and David Olson describe how globalization, digitization, changing demographics, changing industry mix, deregulation and privatization, commoditization of processes, new value chains, emerging new economies, deteriorating environment, and cultural conflicts have led to what they define as a convergence revolution. Lee and Olson discuss this convergence revolution from the perspectives of technology, industry, knowledge, open-source networking and bio-artificial convergence, and they explain how human systems are transformed by what they have named convergenomics. Understanding convergenomics can lead to innovative strategic approaches and, the authors contend, more agile businesses are already employing these approaches to become and remain competitive and to generate greater value in a world radically changed by e-commerce. Business leaders and 'students' of strategy at all levels will learn from this book how revolutionary developments can be embraced rather than feared, and how technology that is potentially frightening in its complexity can be harnessed and used to enable productive collaboration and gain competitive advantage.</p>
