A recently derived Multicriteria Simplex Method [16] is used to study some basic properties in the decomposition of parametric space. A new type of parametric space, which arises naturally in its ...

The death of mathematician George Dantzig is a scientific watershed. Dantzig developed "linear programming" and the simplex method, used to solve complex efficiency problems for large organizations.

The transportation method of linear programming is extended to a more general class of problem, for which the "stepping-stone method" of Charnes and Cooper fails. The method is applicable to various ...
