Item The traveling salesman problem: algorithms, sub-tours and applications in combinatorial optimization(Department of Industrial and Production Engineering, University of Ibadan, 2020) Oladokun, V. O.; Odedairo, B. O.; Atitebi, O. S.The importance of the traveling salesman problem (TSP) in combinatorial optimization and its application and adaptability to numerous real-life problems has led to the development of a wide range of algorithms. A major issue in the development of TSP algorithm involves how to handle the large number of subtour eliminating constraints which contribute to the exponential growth of computational time associated with TSP algorithms. In this chapter, basic concepts, development and many numerous research efforts of Professor O.E. Charles-Owaba on TSP were discussed; some of his works on the concept of the TSP set sequencing algorithm were highlighted.Item Quantitative approach to organisational design in project management office(Department of Industrial and Production Engineering, University of Ibadan, 2020) Odedairo, B. O.; Raji, I. O.In a competitive and dynamic business environment, project management is an efficient framework to ensure flexibility and to manage beneficial change. In the design of a project organisation structure, the use of a quantitative approach to model contingency variables and human dynamics challenges have received limited attention. In this chapter, the basic concepts of projects, organisation design and structure, and Project Management Office (PMO) was discussed. Thereafter, the applicability of operations research paradigm to structure a PMO using the methodology developed by Professor Charles-Owaba were highlighted.
