Solving linear programming problems in a spreadsheet yields equations for maximizing business profits. As applied to business, linear programming typically involves an objective formula, such as unit ...

Integer linear programming can help find the answer to a variety of real-world problems. Now researchers have found a much faster way to do it. The traveling salesperson problem is one of the oldest ...

This paper presents three algorithms for solving linear programming problems in which some or all of the objective function coefficients are specified in terms of intervals. Which algorithm is ...

This project aims at popularizing the usage of numerical methods, and in particular, linear programming techniques, for solving various types of information- and incentive-constrained problems in ...

Roughly, we will cover the following topics (some of them may be skipped depending on the time available). Linear Programming: Basics, Simplex Algorithm, and Duality. Applications of Linear ...

In linear programming problems, as in most economic problems, the input data are often uncertain. So we haven't finished when we've obtained the optimal solution; we still need to ask, how would this ...

This is a preview. Log in through your library . Abstract In teaching linear programming in a classroom the instructor often makes numerical errors, which distract both students and instructor.

George B. Dantzig, the mathematician who invented the field of linear programming, which revolutionized the way government and private enterprise planned, scheduled and generally conducted their ...
