Sažetak
Operational research is a special field of mathematics that deals with solving problems in order to make an optimal decision.

A wide spectrum of application of these methods is available. They are most often used in solving problems in the fi eld of economics,
traffic, engineering, maths, psychology, statistics and many others. In the Republic of Croatia, operational research is being studied at universities, polytechnics and colleges to educate a sufficient
