Perold, André. "Exploiting Degeneracy in the Simplex Method." In Large Scale Linear Programming, edited by G. B. Dantzig, M. A. H. Dempster, and Markku Kallio ...

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

The book also addresses linear programming duality theory and its use in algorithm design as well as the Dual Simplex Method, Dantzig-Wolfe decomposition, and a primal-dual interior point algorithm.

Linear programming -- which is not related to computer programming -- and the Simplex Algorithm provide a means for solving complicated problems with many variables and are generally employed to ...
