Course Objectives: | This course aims to introduce students modeling of linear and integer programs, network flow problems and nonlinear programs; to use the simplex algorithm for solving liner programming problems, branch&bound for solving integer programming problems and some solution algorithms for network flow problems; to understand important modeling techniques and solution algorithms; to get insights about graph theory and its applications; and to identify the types of problems and their solution algorithms. |
The students who have succeeded in this course; I. Formulate large-scale problems as an LP, IP or NLP. II. Identify the type of problems such as linear, integer and nonlinear problems. III. Analyze the algorithms such as simplex and branch and bound. IV. Formulate network flow problems and to solve using specially structured algorithms. |
This course emphasizes modeling of problems as linear programs, mixed integer linear programs, nonlinear programs and network flow programs. In the second half of the course some basic solution algorithms such as simplex and branch and bound, and some network flow programming algorithms are covered. |
