26. Teaching Linear Programming With Excel Solver (CHEER V9 N3) linear programming (LP) is one of the most widely applied O.R. techniques and owes its popularity principally to George Danzig s simplex method (Danzig http://www.economicsnetwork.ac.uk/cheer/ch9_3/ch9_3p07.htm

Volume 9, Issue 3, 1995 Teaching Linear Programming using Microsoft Excel Solver Ziggy MacDonald University of Leicester Linear programming (LP) is one of the most widely applied O.R. techniques and owes its popularity principally to George Danzig's simplex method (Danzig 1963) and the revolution in computing. It is a very powerful technique for solving allocation problems and has become a standard tool for many businesses and organisations. Although Danzig's simplex method allows solutions to be generated by hand, the iterative nature of producing solutions is so tedious that had the computer never been invented then linear programming would have remained an interesting academic idea, relegated to the mathematics classroom. Fortunately, computers were invented and as they have become so powerful for so little cost, linear programming has become possibly one of the most widespread uses for a personal PC. There are of course numerous software packages which are dedicated to solving linear programs (and other types of mathematical program), of which possibly LINDO, GAMS and XPRESS-MP are the most popular. All these packages tend to be DOS based and are intended for a specialist market which requires tools dedicated to solving LPs. In recent years, however, several standard business packages, such as spreadsheets, have started to include an LP solving option, and Microsoft Excel is no exception. The inclusion of an LP solving capability into applications such as Excel is attractive for at least two reasons. Firstly, Excel is perhaps the most popular spreadsheet used both in business and in universities and as such is very accessible. Second to this, the spreadsheet offers very convenient data entry and editing features which allows the student to gain a greater understanding of how to construct linear programs.

Pattern Classification Via Linear Programming Project for CS644 - Pattern Recognition (Prof. Godfried T. Toussaint) Presented by Bohdan Kaluzny Other students projects can be found here. Introduction The purpose of this html document is to show how Linear Programming is used to classify patterns. Specifically, we show how to formulate the problem of finding a linear discriminant function as a problem in Linear Programming. We consider two cases: separable sets and inseparable sets. In addition, the reader will find a number of interesting links to web pages and applets about Linear Programming and Operations Research. Among these is a nice interactive applet that shows the geometric-algebraic relationship of Linear Programming in 2 Dimensions. Latest additions: Links and Applets An intuition behind the LP formulation A large 2D example solved using CPLEX An in-depth look at the linearly inseparable case ... An Application: Breast Cancer Diagnosis The Problem Informally: The fundamental problem we wish to address is that of distinguishing between elements of two disjoint pattern sets. A linear programming solution is attractive since many general purpose linear programming packages exist, thus requiring little or no implementation. Formally (Mathematically): Given two disjoint point sets H and M in the n-dimensional real space R n , we wish to construct a discriminant function f , from R n into the real line R, such that

Next: About this document Linear Programming Michael L. Overton Draft for Encyclopedia Americana December 20, 1997 LINEAR PROGRAMMING , a specific class of mathematical problems, in which a linear function is maximized (or minimized) subject to given linear constraints. This problem class is broad enough to encompass many interesting and important applications, yet specific enough to be tractable even if the number of variables is large. History. Overview. The general form of a linear program is Here and are given numbers, and are variables whose values are to be determined, maximizing the given objective subject to the given constraints. There are n variables and m constraints, in addition to the nonnegativity restrictions on the variables. The constraints are called linear because they involve only linear functions of the variables. Quadratic terms such as or are not permitted. If minimization is desired instead of maximization, this can be accomplished by reversing the signs of An example is very helpful. Consider the linear program

Home Woodcutting Products GNCutter GIPALS Features Screen Shots Examples Download ... Contacts GIPALS (General Interior-Point Algorithm Linear Solver) GIPALS is linear programming environment that incorporates large-scale linear programs solver and easy, intuitive graphical user interface to direct specify or import and solve any type of constrained optimization problems arising in various industrial, financial and educational areas. A constrained optimization problem is stated as a linear program that size can be unlimited. The linear program solver is based on interior-point method (Mehrotra predictor - corrector algorithm) and optimized for large sparse linear programs. The solver exploits a sparsity of the constraint matrix by implementing state-of-art ordering algorithm to preserve the matrix sparsity and hence reduce the calculation time dramatically. Almost every stage of the linear programming calculation can be saved in the debug files or traced for the deep analysis. The user can specify the linear program constraints in a dense form using the grids or in a sparse form using the particular constraints editor. The dense form is suitable for small and medium linear programs with non-zeros prevail over zeros. In this form the constraints can be directly copied/pasted from/to MS Excel spreadsheets by Windows clipboard. The sparse form is designed to specify / view / edit large linear programs with tens and hundreds of thousand variables and constraints. Any constraint can be disabled / enabled from the calculation by the user at any time.

34. The LP Formulation And The Underlying Assumptions A linear programming problem is a special case of a Mathematical Programming linear programming is the specialization of mathematical programming to the http://www2.isye.gatech.edu/~spyros/LP/node1.html

Next: A prototype LP problem: Up: No Title Previous: No Title The LP formulation and the underlying assumptions A Linear Programming problem is a special case of a Mathematical Programming problem. From an analytical perspective, a mathematical program tries to identify an extreme (i.e., minimum or maximum) point of a function , which furthermore satisfies a set of constraints, e.g., . Linear programming is the specialization of mathematical programming to the case where both, function f - to be called the objective function - and the problem constraints are linear From an applications perspective, mathematical (and therefore, linear) programming is an optimization tool, which allows the rationalization of many managerial and/or technological decisions required by contemporary techno-socio-economic applications. An important factor for the applicability of the mathematical programming methodology in various application contexts, is the computational tractability of the resulting analytical models. Under the advent of modern computing technology, this tractability requirement translates to the existence of effective and efficient algorithmic procedures able to provide a systematic and fast solution to these models. For Linear Programming problems, the Simplex algorithm, discussed later in the text, provides a powerful computational tool, able to provide fast solutions to very large-scale applications, sometimes including hundreds of thousands of variables (i.e., decision factors). In fact, the Simplex algorithm was one of the first Mathematical Programming algorithms to be developed (George Dantzig, 1947), and its subsequent successful implementation in a series of applications significantly contributed to the acceptance of the broader field of

Helpful Suggestions for Infeasible Diets!! Description of the diet problem The goal of the diet problem is to find the cheapest combination of foods that will satisfy all the daily nutritional requirements of a person. The problem is formulated as a linear program where the objective is to minimize cost and meet constraints which require that nutritional needs be satisfied. We include constraints that regulate the number of calories and amounts of vitamins, minerals, fats, sodium and cholesterol in the diet. The mathematical formulation is simple, but you will find out by running the model that people do not actually choose their menus by solving this model. Our nutritional requirements can be met yet our concerns for taste and variety go unheeded. We would never drink gallons of vinegar nor include a few boullion cubes in our meals; however, such "optimal" menus have been created using this model. Read more about the history of the diet problem for more interesting facts.
