Analytical Methods & Quantitative Decision Support
Linear and integer programming express decisions as variables, objectives and constraints. Resource allocation, production scheduling, network flow and assignment models make tradeoffs between capacity, labor, cleaning windows and utility availability explicit. Sensitivity analysis helps explain the value of relieving a constraint.
