- Systematic application quantitative methods, techniques, and tools to the analysis of problems involving the operation of systems to help make better decisions and solve complex problems. - Is simply a scientific approach to decision making that seeks to best design and operate a system, usually under conditions requiring the allocation of scarce (limited) resources. , Definition of Operations Research (OR) Main goal of operations research analyzing data developing models applying algorithms Minimize costs maximize profit To find the most efficient and effective solutions
1- System Orientation of Operation Research Operations Research study is its concerned with problem as a whole. This means that an activity by any part of an organization has some impact on the activity of every part. Therefore, to evaluate any decision one must identify all possible interactions and determine their impact on the organization. 2- Application of Scientific Method: Sometimes, we must use the scientific method for solving the problem of Operations Research. It is not related to laboratories experiment like physics or biology or chemistry, but it related by to the real-life experiment. 3- Quantitative Solutions: It provides the management with a quantitative basis for decision making. 4- Human Factor Human factor is an important component of the Operations Research study. Without human factor Operations Research study is incomplete. 5- Use of Interdisciplinary Team Operations Research study is performed by a team of scientists whose individuals' members have been drawn from different scientific and engineering disciplines. For example mathematics, engineering, computer science, economics, and statistics, creating a rich, interdisciplinary approach to problem-solving. Characteristics of Operation Research
