A linear programming problem is said to be stochastic if one or more of the coefficients in the objective function or the system of constraints or resource availabilities is known only by its ...

In linear programming we assume that all the parameters of the problem, i.e., the coefficients of the objective function, the inequalities and the availabilities are known numbers. This is frequently ...

I), Xi⩾ 0. The objective function minimizes (or maximizes) a linear function of the decision variables, for example total cost or total energy content of the diet.
