To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Since one can always specify exhaustive search of alternatives as an optimizing procedure, this is a rather basic dimension. In a real-time operation, one cannot wait for a three hour computer run to establish a routing decision. Some very powerful modeling approaches suffer from lack of computational feasibility. Among these are integer linear programming and dynamic programming in problems of substantial size. There are distinct tradeoffs among model scope and validity, which affect the probl...em size, optimality, and computability. These model-related dimensions suggest the general desirability of large, complex models and automatic computational assistance. And while these are supportable in global periodic and on-line, real-time systems, neither can be in a local real-time structure. It is for this reason that -27- the latter system is of interest mostly as a point of departure for choice between the two more formal and elaborate structures. When a decision model leads to elaborate computation, its use may require a global periodic control structure.
