Abstract
This is a survey paper looking at the various different applications of the non-Optimization techniques in Operations Research techniques used in the steel industry particularly in the process of steel making all across the world. The paper is divided in to applications under the heads of Queuing Theory, Simulation, Statistical Process Control, Artificial Intelligence and Other Non-Optimizing methods. The survey covers a large number of papers across steel making facilities, all across the world, and it is seen that different locations have different types of applications of the various techniques mentioned above. In each of the papers mentioned above, we look at the applications of the topics mentioned and end the session with a critical review of the applications in that area. We conclude the paper with a brief list of topics that could serve as a future research base.
