  2. Criss-cross algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Criss-cross_algorithm

    Researchers have extended the criss-cross algorithm for many optimization-problems, including linear-fractional programming. The criss-cross algorithm can solve quadratic programming problems and linear complementarity problems, even in the setting of oriented matroids. Even when generalized, the criss-cross algorithm remains simply stated.

  3. Linear programming - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_programming

    The linear programming problem was first shown to be solvable in polynomial time by Leonid Khachiyan in 1979, [9] but a larger theoretical and practical breakthrough in the field came in 1984 when Narendra Karmarkar introduced a new interior-point method for solving linear-programming problems.

  4. Interior-point method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interior-point_method

    An interior point method was discovered by Soviet mathematician I. I. Dikin in 1967. [1] The method was reinvented in the U.S. in the mid-1980s. In 1984, Narendra Karmarkar developed a method for linear programming called Karmarkar's algorithm, [2] which runs in provably polynomial time (() operations on L-bit numbers, where n is the number of variables and constants), and is also very ...

  5. Karmarkar's algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Karmarkar's_algorithm

    Karmarkar's algorithm is an algorithm introduced by Narendra Karmarkar in 1984 for solving linear programming problems. It was the first reasonably efficient algorithm that solves these problems in polynomial time. The ellipsoid method is also polynomial time but proved to be inefficient in practice.

  6. George Dantzig - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/George_Dantzig

    Dantzig is known for his development of the simplex algorithm, [1] an algorithm for solving linear programming problems, and for his other work with linear programming. In statistics, Dantzig solved two open problems in statistical theory, which he had mistaken for homework after arriving late to a lecture by Jerzy Neyman. [2]

  7. LP-type problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LP-type_problem

    The discovery of linear time algorithms for linear programming and the observation that the same algorithms could in many cases be used to solve geometric optimization problems that were not linear programs goes back at least to Megiddo (1983, 1984), who gave a linear expected time algorithm for both three-variable linear programs and the ...

  8. Assignment problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Assignment_problem

    The assignment problem can be solved by presenting it as a linear program. For convenience we will present the maximization problem. For convenience we will present the maximization problem. Each edge ( i , j ) , where i is in A and j is in T, has a weight w i j {\textstyle w_{ij}} .

  9. Big M method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Big_M_method

    In operations research, the Big M method is a method of solving linear programming problems using the simplex algorithm.The Big M method extends the simplex algorithm to problems that contain "greater-than" constraints.
