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.

A computational procedure is given for finding the minimum of a quadratic function of variables subject to linear inequality constraints. The procedure is analogous to the Simplex Method for linear ...

In this paper, a modification of the bisection simplex method is made for more general purpose use. Organized in an alternative simpler form, the modified version exploits information of the optimal ...

Eventually linear programming came to be used in everything from manufacturing to diet planning. George Bernard Dantzig was born in Portland, Ore., on Nov. 8, 1914.
