Answer: a) Electronic Data Interchange (EDI)
Before the growth of the common standards for the Internet and the growthof Extranets, firms exchanged data electronically through private networks.
This process was called electronic data interchange (EDI). The EDI standards were initiated in the 1960s in the USA and Europe to allow transportation firms to exchange data across national boundaries. Later, many trade bodies evolved further standards for exchange of commerce-related data. EDI standards are not similar to the data standards used by the Internet; they are based on different,

Q.1 Explain the Concept of Concept of Linear Programming. List down various Assumptions of linear programming
A Concept of Linear Programming 5
Assumptions of linear programming 5
Answer :
Concept of Linear Programming :
In organisations, managers are required to make judicious use of scarce resources, such as men, materials, machines and capital, to minimise costs and maximise profits. A technique that is used to select the best alternative from a set of feasible ones in situations where the objective function and constraints are expressed in linear form is linear programming. For example, a manager has to take decisions related to the development of four new products. Here, the objective function is the maximisation of profits obtained from new products, while constraints can be the availability of raw materials, labour supply and market demand. In such a case, linear
Q.2 Write short note on
- a) Least Cost Method for finding initial solution of transportation problem. 5
- b) Sequencing ‘n’ Jobs on Two Machines 5
Answer :
Least Cost Method :
The matrix minimum method, also known as Least Cost Method (LCM), is used to calculate a basic feasible solution of a transportation problem by considering the lowest cost in the matrix. This is one of the most efficient methods as it determines the optimal solution quickly and requires less calculation. The

Q.1 a. Define the meaning of Simulation. 2
- Explain different Types of simulation 8
Answer :
Simulation :
Simulation is a representation of real-life situations. It is a method in which a replica of a real-world process or system is developed over a period of time. The simulated model acts in the same manner as the selected physical or abstract process or system behaves in reality. For example, aircraft pilots are given training through simulation models as training with real aircrafts can incur huge costs as well as involve various risks. Similarly, in education sector, teachers are
2 Define following criteria’s used for decision making under Uncertainty
- Optimism (maximax or minimin) criterion 2
- Pessimism (maximin or minimax) criterion 2
- Equal probabilities (Laplace) criterion 2
- Coefficient of optimism (Hurwicz) criterion 2
- Regret (salvage) criterion 2
Answer :
The decision maker has to arrive at a decision only on the basis of the actual conditional payoff values. The following is the list of different criteria used for decision making under such a situation:
- Optimism (maximax or minimin) criterion
- Pessimism (maximin or minimax) criterion

Optimal Sequence 2
Total Ellapsed Time 2
Idle time for Machine A 1
Idle time for Machine B 1
Answer:
- a) Importance and utility of the replacement model:
In an organisation, replacement problems arise when fixed assets, such as machines, equipment, and other tools, need to be replaced due to reduced efficiency, failure or breakdown. Sometimes, replacement takes place when more efficient equipment is available in the market or the maintenance of the existing equipment is incurring a huge cost on an organisation. However, an organisation needs to decide when the replacement of new equipment would be economical. Replacement models help an organisation to determine when to replace equipment in a cost-effective manner so that the overall productivity of the organisation is not
