This textbook provides readers with a comprehensive exploration of optimization techniques in industrial engineering, with a specific focus on the Economic Order Quantity (EOQ) problem. It strikes a unique balance by thoroughly discussing the underlying concepts and theories, equipping the reader with the knowledge needed to develop their own programs for solving complex optimization problems in the field. A distinctive feature of this book is its extensive use of MATLAB implementations, which serves as a practical tool to bridge the gap between theory and real-world application. The book is structured with the understanding that learning is accelerated when theoretical concepts are complemented by practical, code-based problem-solving examples. This approach is particularly beneficial for students who may have a weaker background in mathematics, as it demonstrates the practicality and effectiveness of optimization in a more accessible manner. The inclusion of ready-made code examples not only makes the subject matter more engaging for students but also encourages them to experiment, modify, and enhance the code with their own ideas. This method of learning is designed to be less daunting and more stimulating, particularly for those who might feel overwhelmed by the prospect of developing complex programs from scratch. The book's approach is aimed at demystifying the complexities of optimization in industrial engineering, making it more approachable and interesting for students and practitioners alike.
Diverging from other texts that primarily focus on classical techniques for addressing optimization problems in industrial engineering, this book sets itself apart by delving into modern metaheuristic methods. Metaheuristic techniques have gained recognition for their efficacy in tackling complex problems that are often laden with diverse and challenging constraints. These methods, which include algorithms such as simulated annealing, and particleswarm optimization, offer a more dynamic and flexible approach to finding solutions compared to traditional methods. They are particularly adept at navigating vast search spaces and identifying optimal or near-optimal solutions in scenarios where conventional approaches might struggle. This inclusion of metaheuristic methods gives the book a unique quality, providing readers with a comprehensive understanding of both the established foundations and the cutting-edge advancements in the field of optimization. The book's exploration of these advanced techniques not only broadens the reader's knowledge base but also equips them with the tools to effectively solve more intricate and nuanced problems encountered in industrial engineering. This dual focus on classical and modern methods positions the book as a valuable and forward-thinking resource in the realm of industrial optimization.

(2) A ‘consumer' in the sense of the following regulations is every natural person who concludes a legal transaction which, to an overwhelming extent, cannot be attributed to either his commercial or independent professional activities. The term ‘businessman' refers to every natural person, legal person or legally responsible partnership that concludes a legal transaction in pursuance of his/its independent professional or commercial activity.
§ 2 Conclusion of the contract
(1) The subject-matter of the contract is the selling of products .
(2) If an article is placed by us with AbeBooks or ZVAB, the activation of the page on AbeBooks or ZVAB shall involve the binding offer to conclude a contract under the terms and conditions contained in the article page.
(3) The contract shall become effective via the online shopping cart system as follows:
The products intended for purchase are moved to the "shopping cart". You can select the "Shopping Cart" using the appropriate buttons on the navigation bar and make changes there at any time.
After calling up the "Checkout" page and entering the required personal data and payment and shipping conditions, all order information is then displayed again on the order summary page.
Before submitting the order, you have the ability once more to review or change any information here (you may also use the "back" button on the Internet browser), or to cancel the purchase.
By clicking the "Buy now" button to submit the order, you declare your legally binding acceptance of the order which makes the contract effective.
(4) The execution of the order and the sending of all the details necessitated by the conclusion of the contract take place via e-mail, in a partially-automated manner. Consequently, you have to ensure that the e-mail address that you have deposited with us is the correct one, and that the receipt of the respective e-mails is guaranteed. In particular, you have to ensure that the respective e-mails are not blocked by a SPAM filter.
§ 3 Right of retention, reservation of proprietary rights
(1) You can only exercise a right of retention if the situation in question involves claims arising from the same contractual relationship.
(2) The goods remain our property until the purchase price is paid in full.
§ 4 Warranty
(1) The statutory warranty rights are applicable.
(2) As a consumer, you are requested to promptly check the product for completeness, visible defects and transport damage as soon as it is delivered, and promptly disclose your complaints to us and the shipping company in writing. Even if you do not comply with this request, it shall have no effect on your legal warranty claims.
(3) If a characteristic of the goods deviates from the objective requirements, the deviation shall only be deemed to be agreed if you were informed of the same by us before submitting the contractual declaration and the deviation was expressly and separately agreed between the contracting parties.
§ 5 Choice of law, place of fulfilment, jurisdiction
(1) German law shall apply. This choice of law only applies to customers if it does not result in the revocation of the protection guaranteed by the mandatory provisions of the law of the country in which the respective customer's usual place of residence is located (benefit-of-the-doubt principle).
(2) If you are not a consumer, but a businessman, a legal entity under public law or an institutional fund governed by public law, our place of business is the place of jurisdiction as well as the place of fulfilment for all services that follow from the business relationships that exist with us. The same condition applies to situations in which you are not associated with a general place of jurisdiction in Germany or the EU, as well as situations in which the place of residence or the usual place of residence is not known at the time of commencement of proceedings. This has no bearing on the capacity to call upon the court associated with another place of jurisdiction.
(3) The provisions of the UN Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods are explicitly inapplicable.
