Moreover, a new, ratio-test-free pivoting rule is proposed, significantly reducing computational cost at each iteration. Our numerical experiments show that the method is very promising, at least for ...

The branch-and-bound method with the revised dual simplex for bounded variables is very effective in solving relatively large-size integer linear programming problems. This paper, based on the general ...

Formulate the problem as a linear programming problem, and solve it by the graphical method and the simplex method. The first step is to select decision variables. These could be the number of each ...
