在数学专业运筹学教学中引入计算机实践环节的探索

运筹学是应用数学的一个重要分支,在许多学科领域及工程问题中均有应用.自从运筹学在上世纪建立以来,其算法及理论的发展都受到了电子计算机的发展的极大影响.因此在本科运筹学教学中引入适当的计算机实践是非常必要的.这将有助于学生更加深入清晰地理解算法的工作步骤、算法建立的思想以及每个算法的优缺点.在本文中我们试着探讨了为何应在数学专业的运筹学教学中引入计算机实践环节,以及应当如何引入这些实践活动.

Discussion on Introducing Computer Practices in Operation Research Course for Students Majoring in Mathematics

Operation Research(OR) is an important branch of apply mathematics,and is widely used in many scientific and engineering problems.Since OR is founded in the last century,the use and development of electronic computer has greatly effected the research work and the use of OR.So it is important to introduce practice work using computer in the OR class for undergraduate students.By using computer to apply the algorithms in OR course,the students will get a deeper and clearer understanding on how the methods is worked,why the methods are designed these way,and what is the advantage and disadvantage of the methods.In this paper we discussed the importance of using practice works,and how to use these works in teaching OR course.
