The study of Decision Science (DS) is concerned with mathematical methods and tools for solving problems relating to the allocation of scarce resources subject to constraints. Frequently these problems have to do with determining the least cost or greatest profit possible for a cost or profit function subject to constraints such as capacities and required amounts over a very large number of variables.

The growing trends in DS increasingly utilize applications of more than one technique and involve individuals from other disciplines. A creative thinking must look in detail at how those from disciplines outside of DS can come to work in the organizations on multi-disciplinary studies.

The field of DS is always changing. Its changes are driven by the technology it uses and that it extends, and the applications that it affects. This site presents access to the recent advances DS that is of interest to researchers and graduate students across a number of academic domains.

I always welcome information regarding any further references for inclusion. You may like to contact me by sending me an email your comments/suggestions or corrections for improvement. Thank you.
