5. Course Objectives:

This course introduces concepts of optimization and algorithms. Investigating the model in linear programing, describing transportation problem. It also introduces the concepts of Pareto optimization and algorithms.

6. Brief Description of Course Content:

The Optimization module is designed to provide students with knowledge and the ability to apply and analyze issues related to single-objective optimization, multi-objective optimization, and algorithms. Specifically, students will learn linear programming problem models and corresponding dual problems, transportation problem models, empty vehicle problem models, the concept of non-dominant sets in multi-objective optimization, Pareto optimization and algorithms.
The subject is based on Mathematics for Business and Economics, especially Linear Algebra. It is the mathematical foundation for making optimal decisions, post-optimal analysis, determining equilibrium prices between supply and demand through the application of duality theorems, etc. From there, it is applied in the study of economics subjects.
