Concave objective functions which are both piecewise linear and separable are often encountered in a wide variety of management science problems. Provided the constraints are linear, problems of this ...

The present paper deals with the problem of maximizing the ratio of two linear functions subject to a set of linear equalities and nonnegativity constraints on the variables. The problem is attacked ...

Roughly, we will cover the following topics (some of them may be skipped depending on the time available). Linear Programming: Basics, Simplex Algorithm, and Duality. Applications of Linear ...
