Deterministic Modeling: Linear Optimization with Applications A mathematical optimization model consists of an objective function and a set of constraints in the form of a system of equations or inequalities. Optimization models are used extensively in almost all areas of decision-making, such as engineering design and financial portfolio selection. This site presents a focused and structured process for optimization problem formulation, design of optimal strategy, and quality-control tools that include validation, verification, and post-solution activities.
