運籌學

管理设计在生产生活中非常重要

运筹学(英語:Operations Research,又被称作作业研究),是一门應用數學学科,利用统计学数学模型資料科學等方法,去尋找複雜問題中的最佳或近似最佳的解答。运筹学经常用于解决现实生活中的复杂问题,特别是改善或优化现有系统的效率。研究最佳化模型的規劃論,研究排隊(或服務)模型的排隊論,及研究博弈模型的博弈論是運籌學最早的三個重要分支,通常稱為運籌學早期的三大支柱。隨著學科的發展和計算機的出現,現在分支更細,名目更多。

歷史

[编辑]

學界通常將作業研究(英語:Operations research)在英国称為 英語:Operational research 或 OR/MS, management science)的起源定為第二次世界大戰期間,英美兩國為有效地配置各項資源,因而召集科學家成立專門針對軍事作業規劃進行研究的團隊。這些團隊的研究成果幫助聯軍打贏了不列顛空戰北大西洋戰爭太平洋戰爭。例如在不列顛空戰中,英國軍方指派帕特里克·布萊克特1948年諾貝爾物理獎得主)所成立的Blackett Circus,就探討應如何部署與應用所擁有的雷達系統,才能更有效地偵測德軍戰機的攻擊。

美國運籌學會創始人之一的菲利普·M·摩士英语Philip M. Morse在1950年代初給運籌學做出了如下定義:“運籌學是為領導機構對其控制下的業務活動作決策時提供定量依據的科學方法”,它反映出運籌學初期的主要作用。

1947年查爾斯·基泰爾發表文章建議將戰時以科學技術與方法協助進行軍事與政策規劃的成果轉移到和平用途,並鼓勵成立作業研究團隊以協助政府部門與企業。這篇文章開始了「作業研究」一詞,可惜這用詞卻誤導了一些初學者,使他們誤以為這領域的技術與方法只適用於操作性的事務(Operational tasks)。為避免造成誤解,目前有許多學者儘量改以「管理科學」(Management Sciences)稱呼這個學術領域。

「運籌」一詞,本指運用算籌,後引申為謀略之意,最早出自于汉高祖刘邦张良的评价:“运筹帷幄之中,决胜千里之外。”中国在1956年曾用过“运用学”的名字,并于1957年由许国志周华章正式定名为“运筹学”,于1980年成立中国运筹学会(ORSC),随后于1982年加入国际运筹学联合会(IFORS)。
