Constraints can be expressed as linear equations or inequalities involving decision variables and constants. For instance, if you want to maximize the profit from selling two products, X and Y ...

The problem is now in the standard form for linear programming problems: an objective function that is to be maximized, subject to a number of constraints. We go on to examine solution methods. Two ...

Linear programming (LP) is a powerful technique for optimizing a linear objective function subject to a set of linear constraints. However, not every LP problem has a feasible or optimal solution.

Abstract: This paper considers a two-level linear programming problem involving random variable coefficients to cope with hierarchical decision making problems under uncertainty. Two decision making ...

This letter proposes a multi-agent distributed solution for linear programming (LP) problems with time-invariant box constraints on the decision variables and possibly time-varying inequality ...
