Uses an active-learning approach and realistic problems to help you understand and take advantage of the power of spreadsheet modeling. This title includes real examples and problems drawn from finance, marketing, and operations research. It emphasizes modeling over algebraic formulations and memorization of particular models.
Easy to understand and to the point, MANAGEMENT SCIENCE MODELING, 4th Edition, International Edition uses an active-learning approach and realistic problems to help you understand and take advantage of the power of spreadsheet modeling. With real examples and problems drawn from finance, marketing, and operations research, you will easily come to see how management science applies to your chosen profession and how you can use it on the job. The authors emphasize modeling over algebraic formulations and memorization of particular models. The essentials resource website, whose access is available with every new book, includes links to the following add-ins: the Palisade Decision Tools Suite (@RISK, StatTools, PrecisionTree, TopRank, RISKOptimizer, NeuralTools, and Evolver); and SolverTable, which allows you to do sensitivity analysis. All of these add-ins have been revised for Excel 2010.

Wayne L. Winston is Professor Emeritus of Decision Sciences at the Kelley School of Business at Indiana University and is now a Professor of Decision and Information Sciences at the Bauer College at the University of Houston. He has won more than 45 teaching awards and is a six-time recipient of the school-wide MBA award. His current interest focuses on showing how to use spreadsheet models to solve business problems in all disciplines, particularly in finance, sports, and marketing. In addition to publishing more than 20 articles in leading journals, Dr. Winston has written such successful textbooks as OPERATIONS RESEARCH: APPLICATIONS AND ALGORITHMS; MATHEMATICAL PROGRAMMING: APPLICATIONS AND ALGORITHMS; SIMULATION MODELING WITH @RISK; DATA ANALYSIS FOR MANAGERS; SPREADSHEET MODELING AND APPLICATIONS; MATHLETICS, DATA ANALYSIS AND BUSINESS MODELING WITH EXCEL 2013; MARKETING ANALYTICS; and FINANCIAL MODELS USING SIMULATION AND OPTIMIZATION. Dr. Winston received his B.S. degree in mathematics from MIT and his Ph.D. in operations research from Yale. S. Christian Albright received his B.S. degree in mathematics from Stanford in 1968 and his Ph.D. in operations research from Stanford in 1972. Since then, he has been teaching in the Operations and Decision Technologies Department in the Kelley School of Business at Indiana University until his retirement in 2011. He has taught courses in management science, computer simulation, and statistics to all levels of business students: undergraduates, MBAs, and doctoral students. His current interest is in spreadsheet modeling, including development of VBA applications in Excel®. Dr. Albright has published more than 20 articles in leading operations research journals in applied probability. He has also published several successful textbooks, including BUSINESS ANALYTICS: DATA ANALYSIS AND DECISION MAKING; DATA ANALYSIS FOR MANAGERS; SPREADSHEET MODELING AND APPLICATIONS; and VBA FOR MODELERS.
