cTx = c1x1 + · · · + cnxn The subject of linear programming can be defined quite concisely. It is concerned with the problem of maximizing or minimizing a linear function whose variables are required to satisfy a system of linear constraints, a constraint being a linear equation or inequality. The subject might more appropriately be called linear optimization. Problems of this sort come up in a natural and quite elementary way in many contexts but especially in problems of economic planning

discourse. The representational primitives are typically classes (or sets), attributes (or properties), and relationships (or relations among class members). The definitions of the representational primitives include information about their meaning and constraints on their logically consistent application. In the context of database systems, ontology can be viewed as a level of abstraction of data models, analogous to hierarchical and relational models, but intended for modeling knowledge about individuals

begin with an in-depth look at both the garbage can model and the theory of bounded rationality. In the process, we will place an increased emphasis on researcher Herbert Simon, the researcher credited with founding the bounded rationality, as well as the unique psychological perspective that led him there. By highlighting the shortcomings of these two theories, we will reveal

In order to save the plant, he needs to gain profit and make more money in general. Through talking with a physicist, Jonah, and learning about various operational management concepts, Alex learns how to save his plant. He learned about the theory of constraints, throughput, statistical fluctuation, dependent events, and the drum, buffer, and rope method. After examining these concepts, he saw fit how to apply them to the work happening at the plant. In addition to the plant, these concepts can be

The role of positive accounting theory. PAT has been the most significant accounting research agendas during the past four decades (Kabir). Before the arrival of PAT, normative accounting research had been the leading research tradition in accounting. Normative accounting theorists concentrated in developing accounting principles for recognition and measurement issues. In contrast with normative accounting theory which deals with “should” kind questions, PAT deals with “is” kind questions. According
