Book Description
This tutorial introduces readers to several variants of routing problems with profits. In these routing problems each node has a certain profit, and not all nodes need to be visited. Since the orienteering problem (OP) is by far the most frequently studied problem in this category of routing problems, the book mainly focuses on the OP. In turn, other problems are presented as variants of the OP, focusing on the similarities and differences. The goal of the OP is to determine a subset of nodes to visit and in which order, so that the total collected profit is maximized and a given time budget is not exceeded.The book provides a comprehensive review of variants of the OP, such as the team OP, the team OP with time windows, the profitable tour problem, and the prize-collecting travelling salesperson problem. In addition, it presents mathematical models and techniques for solving these OP variants and discusses their complexity. Several simple examples and benchmark instances, together with their best-known results, are also included. Finally, the book reviews the latest applications of these problems in the fields of logistics, tourism and others.

Book Description
EVERY PROJECT IS A JOURNEY. Many of us still approach project management as a set of best practices and processes that follow a structured and linear path to delivering a project's intended outcome. But what often happens during the course of a project is that communication generates confusion, schedules get off track, sponsors disengage, and teams can end up far away from their intended destinations. You'll be well prepared to address whatever might go off course in any project if you anticipate and plan ahead by following the guiding principles outlined in this book. With Project Orienteering, author Denise Brinkmeyer takes readers through every phase of a project's journey, with attention to a project's most variable elements--its people. She argues that the most important skill we bring to a project is an ability to adjust, flex, and pivot in ways that remain sensitive to the delicate balance among time requirements, funding allotments, and a project's overall value. Brinkmeyer speaks primarily to project managers but has something to say to everyone involved: from stakeholders, sponsors, and project teams to customers and end users. She shows that successfully achieving a vision within a project's designated budget is possible, as is creating a collaborative team environment in which everyone remains focused on the value being delivered, expectations are aligned along the way, and team members practice an adaptive, predictive approach to navigating the project's changing terrain.
