The authors of this book have been in charge of over thirty
industrial contracts of various length (from six months to three
years); the companies involved covered a wide range of industrial
activities, including steel making, hot and cold rolling, aerospace
research, automobile manufactur ing, chemical manufacturing, coal
mining, bronze casting, and mechanical engineering. All contracts
were related to problems connected either with the preliminary
design of production systems or with the management of these
systems. The problems that the authors investigated involved not
only designing and scheduling, but also the modeling, analysis, and
evalua tion of production systems. The book is based to a large
extent on the experience gained in working on these contracts and
the mathematical procedures presented are those that have been
applied during the course of work on at least one of the contracts.
Moreover, the authors have always kept in mind an idea which seems
pivotal in the world of industry: the difficulty in companies lies
much more in determining the exact nature of a problem and defining
the criteria to be taken into account, than in solving the problem
itself."
