Description
Decomposing hard optimization problem into simple problems that can be solves easily using a basic computer.
Short Summary
This book provides a practical approach to decomposition techniques in optimization. It provides an appropriate blend of theoretical background and practical applications in engineering and science, which makes the book interesting for practitioners, as well as engineering, operations research and applied economics graduate and postgraduate students. This book is similar to Warren Powell's Seqeuntial decision Analytics where it takes a easy teach by example approach. However, the reader must have some level of math to understand this book.
When & Why?
If you are already familiar with optimization models and want to make it faster or solvable by using decomposition techniques. You are also pretty familiar with basic calculus and mathematical notation.
Review: what is good & less good?
Might be too advanced for beginners. Would definitely benefit if you have a good understanding of optimization already.
