This is a basic textbook for those who wish to use digital computers for simulating engineering and business systems. It is meant for the students of engineering and business management as well as for systems analysts, industrial engineers and operations research professionals. The reader has been given enough grounding so that he can use simulation to solve simple but mathematically intractable problems. This compact basic textbook has been well received by students and professionals for many years. Key Features This book provides a rigorous yet informal treatment of graph theory with an emphasis on computational aspects of graph theory and graph-theoretic algorithms. Numerous applications to actual engineering problems are incorpo-rated with software design and optimization topics.
