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 ...

The book also addresses linear programming duality theory and its use in algorithm design as well as the Dual Simplex Method, Dantzig-Wolfe decomposition, and a primal-dual interior point algorithm.

Linear programming -- which is not related to computer programming -- and the Simplex Algorithm provide a means for solving complicated problems with many variables and are generally employed to ...
