Abstract
This appendix gives an overview of the types of problems that can be formulated as mathematical programs. All the applications discussed concern scheduling problems. In order to understand these examples the reader should be familiar with the notation introduced in Chapter 2.This appendix is aimed at people who are already familiar with elementary Operations Research techniques. It makes an attempt to put various notions and problem definitions in perspective. Relatively little will be said about the standard solution techniques for dealing with such problems
