Written for public policy and social sciences students at the upper undergraduate and graduate level, as well as public sector decision-makers, it demonstrates and compares the development and use of various deterministic and probabilistic optimization and simulation modeling methods for analyzing planning and management issues. These modeling tools offer a means of identifying and evaluating alternative plans and policies based on their physical, economic, environmental, and social impacts. Learning how to develop and use the mathematical modeling tools introduced in this book will give students useful skills when in positions of having to make informed public policy recommendations or decisions. 410 0$aInternational Series in Operations Research and Management Science 606 $aPublic administration$2bicssc 606 $aOperational research$2bicssc 606 $aOptimization$2bicssc 606 $aEconomic theory & philosophy$2bicssc 610 $aPublic systems planning 610 $aPublic management 610 $aOperations research 610 $aModels for policy analyses 610 $aPublic evaluation 610 $aPolicy Analysis 610 $aPublic policy analysis 610 $aLinear Optimization Modeling 610 $aDiscrete Optimization Modeling 610 $aLagrangian Models 610 $aSimulation Modeling 615 7$aPublic administration 615 7$aOperational research 615 7$aOptimization 615 7$aEconomic theory & philosophy 700 $aLoucks$b Daniel P$0440319 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910578687903321 996 $aPublic Systems Modeling$92911920 997 $aUNINA
