The aim of this course is to present a number of application areas within logistics, where quantitative methods are especially suitable. After the course, the students should:
- know the principle behind the SCOR-model-building
- perform simple metric calculations using the SCOR-model
- create simple models in decision theory
- conduct an investment analysis
- implement a project planning with CPM and PERT methodology
- generate a queueing model and simulation model for simple logistics cases
- master various special cases of inventory control
