Course Objectives: | This course aims to formulate business problems as linear programming models, solve linear programming models by using simplex algorithm, understand the theory of simplex algorithm, analyze the relationship between the primal and dual problem, model problems as network optimization models, and analyze basic solution algorithms in network optimization. |
The students who have succeeded in this course; I. Formulate mathematical models of business problems using linear programming and network theory. II. Follow problem solution techniques such as simplex algorithm and understand the theory of simplex algorithm. III. Analyze the usage and the limitations of simplex algorithm. IV. Follow polynomial time solution algorithms for linear programming, such as Karmarkar's projective algorithm. V. Use primal-dual relationships and examine economic interpretation of duality. VI. Formulate network flow problems such as shortest path, maximum flow, minimum cost flow problems. VII. Apply solution techniques for different network flow problems. |
This course provides a comprehensive overview of the principles and practice of optimization. Main focus of this course is on deterministic models with an emphasis on linear programming and network flows. The topics of this course include linear programming, theory of simplex algorithm, duality theory, network flows and algorithms. |
