The book also addresses linear programming duality theory and its use in algorithm design as well as the Dual Simplex Method, Dantzig-Wolfe decomposition, and a primal-dual interior point algorithm.

The paper gives a comparison of Beale's method for quadratic programming and the Simplex Method for quadratic programming as developed by Dantzig and Van de Panne and Whinston. After summary ...
