Linear programming finds the least expensive way to meet given
needs with available resources. Its results are used in every area
of engineering and commerce: agriculture, oil refining, banking,
and air transport. Authors Kolman and Beck present the basic
notions of linear programming and illustrate how they are used to
solve important common problems. The software on the included disk
leads students step-by-step through the calculations. The Second
Edition is completely revised and provides additional review
material on linear algebra as well as complete coverage of
elementary linear programming. Other topics covered include: the
Duality Theorem; transportation problems; the assignment problem;
and the maximal flow problem. New figures and exercises are
provided and the authors have updated all computer applications.
Thecompanion website on www.elsevierdirect.comcontains the
student-oriented linear programming code SMPX, written by Professor
Evar Nering of Arizona State University. The authors also recommend
inexpensive linear programming software for personal computers.
Please note the previous printing included a disk attached to
the back of the book.
The material is now only available on the companion website
