Operational Research:

Operations research is an analytical method used for problem-solving and decision-making processes within organizational management. It involves breaking down problems into fundamental components and addressing them systematically through mathematical analyses.

Assignment Problem:

The assignment problem is a foundational combinatorial optimization issue within the domain of operations research. It entails finding the maximum weight matching (or minimum weight perfect matching) in a weighted bipartite graph, where agents must be assigned to tasks under cost constraints.

Transportation Problem:

The transportation problem represents a unique type of linear programming challenge aimed at minimizing distribution costs from multiple sources to various destinations.

Linear Programming:

Linear programming is a mathematical optimization method that seeks to achieve the best outcomes based on linear relationships within the given model's constraints.

Sequencing Problem:

The sequencing problem involves optimizing the order in which jobs are assigned to service facilities to enhance outputs in terms of time, cost, or profit.

Game Theory:

Game theory explores strategic analyses in competitive scenarios where participants' actions influence outcomes significantly. This concept is widely applied in diverse fields such as warfare, business, and biology.
