Abstract
This chapter provides a primer on optimization and mathematical modeling. It does not provide a complete description of these topics. Instead, this chapter provides enough background information to support reading the rest of the book. For more discussion of optimization modeling techniques see, for example, Williams [86]. Implementations of simple examples of models are shown to provide the reader with a quick start to using Pyomo.
