    Research Methodology and Operations Research combines a balanced coverage of the theory and application of business research methods and the computations of operations research (OR). It helps the readers to master the skills of research—from preparing the research proposal by identifying the business problems to collecting and analyzing information—and aid in business decision-making in the most effective manner. The book also facilitates learning in structuring and analyzing various OR problems required for managerial decision-making by using basic OR tools and techniques. Complex mathematical concepts are effectively explained by means of carefully designed numerical examples, essentially eliminating the need for formal mathematical proofs.
