The material within the book provides both the basic backgrounds for the novice modeler and a useful reference for experienced modelers. It represents the exploitation of recent mathematical tools and methods to solve large optimization models with contributions from leading edge American and European companies and Universities. Audience: Students, researchers and OR practitioners will appreciate the details of the modeling techniques, the processes that have been implemented and the computational results that demonstrate the benefits in applying OR in the Space and Airline industries.
