This book gives a com prehensive and balanced treatment of the various optimization techniques. The development, application, and computational aspects of linear, nonlinear, geometric, dynamic, integer and stochastic programming techniques as well as classical optimization techniques, critical path method, programme evaluation and review technique, game theory and calculus of variations are given.
The book is oriented toward practical engineering applications and each new concept has been illustrated by a numerical example. Some of the topics like integer nonlinear programming, stochastic programming and complementary geometric programming, which are potential areas for engineering application, are included in this book. It is designed to serve as text for two courses of one semester each for students having having a a knowledge of differential calculus and theory.
