Course Code: ΤΕΜΑΘ03
Semester: 8th elective (Spring)
Requirements: –
Language of Teaching: Greek
European Credit Transfer and Accumulation System (ECTS): 5,5
OBJECTIVE
The aim of the course is to familiarize students with the concepts of decision making using Operations Research.
Upon successful completion of the course, the students will be able to:
- Describe real decision making problems and determine the steps that they are going to use in order to solve these problems using mainly commercial software packages (problem modeling, methodological approaches and algorithms, interpretation of results, decision implementation)
- Describe how they will use the results of the problem data processing
- Identify previous cases that are relevant and can help solve the problem
- Analyze decision making problems and construct mathematical models describing them, taking into account all the parameters and constraints governing the problem of decision
- Choose and apply methodologies appropriate to each case to solve decision problems
- Use the right mathematical software and develop applications on the specific software tools to solve the problems
- Analyze the results of the solution of the mathematical model and propose the solution or solutions to the problem
- Argue for the choice of solution or decision
- Work on Operations Research problems with intensive computer practice
