INTRODUCTION TO OPERATIONS RESEARCH, NINTH EDITION
Tahun : 2005 Pengarang : Frederick S. Hillier and Gerald J. Lieberman Penerbit : McGraw-Hill Ket : When Jerry Lieberman and I started working on the first edition of this book 45 years
ago, our goal was to develop a pathbreaking textbook that would help establish the
future direction of education in what was then the emerging field of operations research.
Following publication, it was unclear how well this particular goal was met, but what did
become clear was that the demand for the book was far larger than either of us had anticipated. Neither of us could have imagined that this extensive worldwide demand would
continue at such a high level for such an extended period of time.
The enthusiastic response to our first eight editions has been most gratifying. It was a
particular pleasure to have the field’s leading professional society, the international Institute
for Operations Research and the Management Sciences (INFORMS), award the 6th edition
honorable mention for the 1995 INFORMS Lanchester Prize (the prize awarded for the year’s
most outstanding English-language publication of any kind in the field of operations research) Ketegori : OPERATIONAL RESEARCH
