LINEAR PROGRAMING AND SIMPLEX METHOD Devharajan Rangarajan Department of Electronic Engineering National University of Ireland, Maynooth devharajan.rangarajan.2016@mumail.ie Abstract— An optimization problem consists of maximizing or minimizing a real function by systematically choosing input values from within an allowed set and computing the value of the function. This pays way to a new world of constrained optimization. This paper focuses on one such optimization technique known

Mathematical Programming The Mathematical Programming Add-in constructs models that can be solved using the Solver Add-in or one of the solution add-ins provided in the collection. When the Math Programming add-in is installed, several new command lines are added to the OR_MM menu. The menu items under the title Math Programming create models of the different types. Selecting an item from this list causes a dialog box to be presented which constructs a mathematical programming model. The models
