      abstract = {This textbook provides an introduction to the use and  understanding of optimization and modeling for upper-level  undergraduate students in engineering and mathematics. The  formulation of optimization problems is founded through  concepts and techniques from operations research:  Combinatorial Optimization, Linear Programming, and Integer  and Nonlinear Programming (COLIN). Computer Science (CS) is  also relevant and important given the applications of  algorithms and Apps/algorithms (A) in solving optimization  problems. Each chapter provides an overview of the main  concepts of optimization according to COLINA, providing  examples through App Inventor and AMPL software  applications. All apps developed through the text are  available for download. Additionally, the text includes  links to the University of Wisconsin NEOS server, designed  to handle more computing-intensive problems in complex  optimization. Readers are encouraged to have some  background in calculus, linear algebra, and related  mathematics.},
