For junior/senior-level courses in Systems Analysis or Systems Analysis and Economics as applied to civil engineering.
With a reorganization and new material, the Second Edition of this acclaimed text is designed to enhance the student's learning experience by providing exposure to modeling ideas and concepts. Network flow problems are emphasized by highlighting their study separately from the general integer programming models that are considered. With a wider range of examples and exercises that conclude many chapters, this text offers students an extremely practical, accessible study on the most modern skills available for the design, operation and evaluation of civil and environmental engineering systems.
Offers students a highly accessible presentation of the subject matter so they can master the material at an ambitious yet comfortable pace.
Provides students with further opportunities to develop formulation skills without the necessity of employing mathematics.
Challenges students to identify the needed parameters and problem objectives as well as constraints and appropriate decision variables.
Provides a more consistent flow of material so that students can absorb the subject matter more easily.
Offers the instructor flexibility with these topics while allowing independent study of the classical and widely applicable models of network flows.
Helps students apply the concepts they are learning so they can be equipped with a working knowledge of the material.
