• MAT 303: Linear Programming

  3.00 Credits

  Carlow University

  
  An introduction to linear programming techniques that solve real applied problems. The focus is on using linear programming techniques, applications, models, algorithms, and a computer software package to solve optimization, product-mix, transportation, scheduling, assignment, and hiring-firing problems. Methods learned include the revised simplex method, duality, sensitivity analysis, integer programming, and sparse matrix techniques
