Analytical research methods are finding exact quantitative relationships between a number of dependent factors. A feature of the techniques is the use of a strict algorithm of actions, deterministic information. Equally important is the uniqueness of the established dependence. These techniques are widely used in various fields. So, this or that method of science is used when developing projects and plans, evaluating financial, industrial and economic activities. The fields of application are human and information resources, parametric studies of control systems.
Analytical method. Tasks
All actual processes and systems are classified as probabilistic systems. Evaluation and analysis of variables is carried out through appropriate techniques. Among the main tasks for the solution of which the analytical method is used, it should be noted:
- Development of statistical (probabilistic) models of random systems and processes.
- Finding laws on the distribution of quantities and determining the nature of phenomena.
- Assessment of reliability, stability and risk during the functioning of the system.
Operations research
A model study of systems to optimize their activities is carried out by appropriate techniques. In the process of research, the most acceptable way to solve managerial problems is identified within the limited financial, labor, material, technical resources. The theory itself originated in the 1940s. At that time, the need arose for solving tactical and strategic tasks. With the development of theory, the corresponding analytical method began to develop. It should be noted that in the field of management, network planning techniques are of particular importance. They made it possible to find a convenient form of analysis, modeling and description of complex projects and works that include several stages.
Mathematical logic
A particular analytical method used in this field is the use of probabilistic functions, disjunctions and conjunctions, operations with them in order to evaluate and study the complex organizational structure of the system. Logical statistical techniques deserve special attention. They allow you to describe the structure of varying complexity using the functions of mathematical logic, while creating for each component a probabilistic model of its activity.
Modeling
This method is a process of describing an object, process or structure through a complex of information and mathematical constructions that characterize the subject to a certain degree of detail, reproducing the functioning of the structure using computing and software. This technique is always an experiment. It is carried out through the use of special technologies that allow you to analyze probable alternatives, evaluating their disadvantages and advantages. Modeling is considered a fairly effective, safe method.
