It explores how decisions are made at railroads, contains examples of the mathematical programming formulations to the complex problems, and provides insights into real-world applications. The handbook is divided into eleven chapters, covering topics including scheduling problems, empty railcar distribution, and intermodal rail. These topics have been specifically selected to offer a thorough examination of the application of operations research at freight railroads. The chapters are written by recognized award-winning scholars and practitioners with a deep knowledge and understanding of their specific topics. The Handbook of Operations Research Applications at Railroads is an ideal resource for academics, experienced researchers, and consultants in the field. 000726607 588__ $$aOnline resource; title from PDF title page (viewed April 21, 2015). 000726607 650_0 $$aRailroads$$xManagement$$xResearch. 000726607 650_0 $$aRailroads$$xManagement$$xMathematical models. 000726607 650_0 $$aOperations research. 000726607 7001_ $$aPatty, Bruce W.,$$eeditor. 000726607 77608 $$iPrint version:$$tHandbook of operations research applications at railroads.$$dNew York : Springer, [2015]$$z9781489975706$$w(DLC)18490354 000726607 830_0 $$aInternational series in operations research & management science ;$$v2. 000726607 852__ $$bebk 000726607 85640 $$3SpringerLink$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-1-4899-7571-3$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 000726607 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:726607$$pGLOBAL_SET 000726607 980__ $$aEBOOK 000726607 980__ $$aBIB 000726607 982__ $$aEbook 000726607 983__ $$aOnline 000726607 994__ $$a92$$bISE
