Description
Presenting a strong and clear relationship between theory and practice, Linear and Integer Optimization: Theory and Practice is divided into two main parts. The first covers the theory of linear and integer optimization, including both basic and advanced topics. Dantzig's simplex algorithm, duality, sensitivity analysis, integer optimization models
Reviews / Votes
Praise for the first edition:"...very recommendable as a textbook and to anybody wishing to learn the topic."
-Optimization (1997)
"...the book is a nice balance between theory and applications...and gives a sound background for the techniques used and for investigating real problems."
-Zentralblatt fuer Mathematik (1998)
