Description

The LinearProgramming function in Mathematica is unique in its ability to solve linear optimization problems of integer/rational coefficients and to give rational solutions. These algorithms however are not designed for solving large machine precision problems. In this talk we discuss new developments in LinearProgramming, including a new algorithm that is capable of solving large scale linear optimization problems with hundreds of thousands of variables and equations.
