Instructor Fall 2016: Sriram SankaranarayananPrerequisitesCalculus I,II + Algorithms + Linear Algebra.Topics CoveredRoughly, we will cover the following topics (some of them may be skipped depending ...

Moreover, a new, ratio-test-free pivoting rule is proposed, significantly reducing computational cost at each iteration. Our numerical experiments show that the method is very promising, at least for ...

In this paper, we first propose a perturbation procedure for achieving dual feasibility, which starts with any basis without introducing artificial variables. This procedure and the dual simplex ...

Formulate linear and integer programming problems for solving commonly encountered optimization problems. Understand how approximation algorithms compute solutions that are guaranteed to be within ...

About the same time, he invented the “simplex method,” an algorithm for solving linear programming problems.
