This collection of ?living case studies? is all based on the author?s 30-year career of consulting and advisory work. These true-to life industrial applications illustrate the research and development of solutions, as well as potential implementation and integration problems that may occur when adopting these methods into a business. Among the topics covered in the chapters include optimization in circuit board manufacturing, Decision Support System (DSS) for plant loading and dispatch planning, as well as development of important test procedures for tyre and pharma industry with shelf life constraints. In particular, the study on deckle optimization should be of great help to managers in paper industry and consultants for development of deckle optimization software. The application of operations research throughout the industry makes it an ideal guide for industrial executives, professionals and practitioners responsible for quality and productivity improvement. 410 0$aInternational Series in Operations Research & Management Science,$x0884-8289 ;$v229 606 $aOperations research 606 $aDecision making 606 $aProduction management 606 $aManagement science 606 $aOperations Research/Decision Theory$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/521000 606 $aOperations Management$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/519000 606 $aOperations Research, Management Science$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/M26024 615 0$aOperations research. 615 0$aDecision making. 615 0$aProduction management. 615 0$aManagement science. 615 14$aOperations Research/Decision Theory. 615 24$aOperations Management. 615 24$aOperations Research, Management Science. 676 $a338.00184 700 $aMurthy$b G.
