Divertimento su temi di ricerca operativa: Nel mondo anglosassone, in cui la ricerca operativa (R.O.) ha trovato, in tempi moderni, un proprio posto come scienza nel campo del Management Science, normalmente essa viene definita come "application of scientific, quantitative and logical methods to construc models capable of simulating future events and situations and, therefore, supporting the company's management in the decisional process". Più nello specifico in Inghilterra essa viene definita come operational research, mentre negli Stati Uniti essa prende il nome di operations research. In funzione dei problemi tipici di Ricerca Operativa che compaiono nelle imprese, nella pubblica amministrazione, nelle organizzazioni militari, e così via, si tratta poi di costruire modelli matematici in grado di identificare una decisione ottima fra numerose alternative, dopo che siano stati quantificati i costi e i ricavi.
In the Anglo-Saxon world, where operations research (R.O.) has found, in modern times, its own place as a science in the field of Management Science, normally it is defined as "the application of scientific, quantitative and logical methods to construct models capable of simulating future events and situations and, therefore, supporting the company's management in the decisional process". More specifically, in England it is defined as operational research, while in the United States it is called the operations research. Depending on the typical problems of operational research appearing in enterprises, public administration, military organizations, and so on, it is then to construct mathematical models able to identify an optimal decision among many alternatives, after they have been quantified the costs and revenues.
