Optimization Models

Optimization models are mathematical models that help organizations determine the best way to allocate scarce resources to achieve specific objectives. These models can be used to solve a wide variety of problems, from finding the most efficient route for a delivery truck to determining the optimal mix of products to stock in a store.
