To employ linear programming in production-planning problems in the chemical industry it is often necessary to make a linear model of plant which seems highly non-linear. An approach with some ...

Eventually linear programming came to be used in everything from manufacturing to diet planning. George Bernard Dantzig was born in Portland, Ore., on Nov. 8, 1914.

The Constraints (aka inputs) First, the rules of the game must be established in the form of operating constraints, which form the “dimensions of the field” that the solver will ultimately play in.

An operations planning and economics improvement project at ConocoPhillips's Lake Charles, La., refinery successfully developed and implemented high-quality kinetic process models used for unit ...
