Operation Research is an interdisciplinary branch of Mathematical Science. It uses methods like Mathematical modeling, Statistics, and Algorithms to arrive at optimal and excellent decisions in complex problems which are otherwise highly difficult or nearly impossible to achieve using mere common sense. The final objective behind using operations research is to bring out a best possible solution to a problem mathematically, which excels or optimizes the performance of the system.
“Operations Research as the application of scientific methods, techniques and tools to operation of a system with optimum solutions to the problems.†Here optimum implies the one, which is best of all possible alternatives.
Finally, the results of the experiments are analyzed and the theory is either accepted or rejected. If the theory is accepted, the best solution to the problem is obtained.

SIMULATION Simulation involves developing a model of some real event and then performing experiments on the model evolved.
PROCESS OF SIMULATION There are four phases of the simulation process.
