The "big data revolution" has placed added emphasis on computational techniques in Operations Research (OR). Large-scale optimization, data analysis and visualization are now commonplace among researchers and practitioners alike. More than ever, there is a need not only to develop new techniques, but also to implement and use them. This course is a multi-session workshop focusing on software tools specific to the practice of OR. We concentrate on the mechanics of using common software to apply specific methodologies. The goal of the course is to provide a baseline technical knowledge for modern research in OR, including the computational aspects of: data manipulation/analysis, visualization, graphs, and optimization. Class participation and individual hands-on coding are stressed in each session.
