From the Publisher: This accessible, hands-on resource emphasizes the practical applications of linear programming in a simplified, nontheoretical manner, without requiring knowledge of the underlying mathematics. An introduction to linear programming concepts is followed by a detailed guide to model construction and output interpretation, with special attention paid to negative coefficients. The final portion contains linear programming usages through actual examples, including identifying errors and troubleshooting through problems in linear programming models. Also provides techniques for debugging models and testing for sensitivity to changes.
