The mission to improve the widely used simplex-method algorithm showed instead why it works so well.

Most examples of cycling in the simplex method are given without explanation of how they were constructed. An exception is Beale's example built around the geometry of the dual simplex method in the ...

New Scientist takes a look at the simplex algorithm, now over 60 years old, which is used by everyone from fruit suppliers to banks to make decisions about non-linear problems with so many ...

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 ...
