Toyota Professor at ISB

Professor Sridhar Seshadri was our Operations Management Prof for the first 5 lectures in Term 3. I don't really remember when the course started, but today, the new Prof has taken charge for the next 5 lectures. Prof.Sridhar has bid farewell to all of us.

Prof.Sridhar introduced us to processes, flow time, flow rate and capacity. During the last five lectures we solved the cookie problem for Kristen, the computer rentals problem for Richard Sarkis, the PCB problem for Ed Plummer and things like that.

A proper mix of qualitative and quantitative aspects was followed. Now, whats going to follow this weekend is the mid-term, which will quantitatively determine our understanding of the last 5 lectures.
