Modeling of Production Systems in Economy

Lecturer:

Petr Fiala

Tutor:

Petr Fiala

Supervisor:

Department of Software Engineering in Economy

Synopsis:

The aim of the teaching course is to introduce students to basic models and methods for analysis and optimization of production systems. Models are oriented on design, operation, measurement and improvement phases of production systems. Models and analyses of supply chains are considered also. Model formulations are based on integer programming a graph theory. Optimization and heuristic approaches are used for solutions.

Study Objective:

Upon successful completion of this course, students will be able to describe, formulate and solve problems of production systems, including supply chains.

Formulation of models is based on findings of integer programming and graph theory. Optimization and heuristic approaches are used for model solving.
