| Course Objectives | 1) To optimize the trade-offs encountered in logistics systems and to develop necessary analytical methods to establish a minimum cost highest quality of service. 2) To have students to demonstrate the ability to use management science, probability and statistics knowledge to make long, medium and short term decisions regarding logistic system design, inventory management, warehouse design and operations, facility locations and freight transport. 3) To teach the ability to analyze and solve the complex logistics decision problems in a systematic perspective by using mathematical programming, heuristic algorithms and related computer applications. |
| Learning Outcomes |
The students who succeeded in this course;
|
| Course Description | The course includes the fundamentals of the analytical tools available to reduce costs and improve service levels in logistics systems. Strategic, tactical and operational level decisions regarding logistics system design, inventory management, warehouse design and operations, facility location, freight transport planning are studied and modeled using operations research tools. The essential theory on set covering, traveling salesperson and vehicle routing problems is studied to provide a sound basis for advanced modeling. Mathematical programming and heuristic algorithms for solving complex logistics decision problems are introduced with relevant computer applications. |
