Linear Programming is a must-have guide for students, researchers, and academics seeking to understand the fundamentals of linear programming, as well as its many applications. Operations research involves the use of management skills, knowledge of the economy, and mathematical application. Linear programming lies at the heart of operations research and is a valuable tool for modeling and solving linear optimization problems.

This book covers the essential elements of linear programming, including modeling management situations in diverse contexts. Features definitions, didactical examples, and exercises with detailed correction. The author provides easy-to-follow mathematical formulations of an economic problem and describes how to use the tools of linear programming to solve it. The economic interpretation of the obtained results is also included.
