I just finished my first paper in operation research. The work is about a shift scheduling problem. It solves the problem of staffing for fictional problem of a check processing center. Based on a work by Krajewski, L. J., Ritzman, L. P., & McKenzie, P. (1980) Shift scheduling in bank operations: a case application. Interfaces, 10(2), 1-8.

Operational Research ("OR"), also known as Operations Research or Management Science ("OR/MS") looks at an organisation's operations and uses mathematical or computer models, or other analytical approaches, to find better ways of doing them.
