About the same time, he invented the “simplex method,” an algorithm for solving linear programming problems.

Moreover, a new, ratio-test-free pivoting rule is proposed, significantly reducing computational cost at each iteration. Our numerical experiments show that the method is very promising, at least for ...

We prove the correctness of the procedure, and relate it to other pivoting rules for linear programming. OR professionals in every field of study will find information of interest in this balanced, ...
