The death of mathematician George Dantzig is a scientific watershed. Dantzig developed "linear programming" and the simplex method, used to solve complex efficiency problems for large ...

The Linear Programming Problem is by far the most widely used optimization model. Its impact on economic and government modeling is immense. The Simplex Method for solving the Linear Programming (LP) ...

This paper presents a simple numerical algorithm for the solution of programming problems in which some or all of the variables can take only discrete values. The algorithm requires no special ...
