Data, Models, and Decisions: The Fundamentals of Management Science

This book represents a departure from existing textbooks. Rather than covering methodology, the book introduces decision support systems through real world applications, and uses spreadsheets to model and solve problems. It uses management science techniques (statistics, simulation, probabilistic modeling and optimization), but only as tools to facilitate problem solving. The book embraces George Dantzig's dictum as its premise: "The final test of any theory is its capacity to solve the problems which originated it." 
 The book is used in the core MBA program at MIT's Sloan School of Management for the class titled: "Data, Models and Decisions". It is used in over ten universities in both core and elective classes, including Stanford University, Chicago's graduate school of Business, Babson College, among several others. 
 The book contains many real business cases from the authors' consulting experience. Instructor resources are available for faculty who have adopted the book for their course by contacting the authors directly @ dbertsim@mit.edu, rfreund@mit.edu )

Excerpt from Conservation Laws, Extended Polymatroids and Multi-Armed Bandit Problems: An Unified Approach to Indexable SystemsAn interesting distinction, which is not emphasized in the literature, is that examples (1) and (2) above are indexable systems, but they are not in general decomposable systems. Example however, has a more refined structure. It is indexable, but not decomposable. Under discounting, while it is decomposable under the average cost criterion (the cu rule). As already observed, the multi-armed bandit problem is an example of a decomposable system, while example (4) above is also decomposable.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
