We consider the specialization of the primal simplex algorithm to the problem of finding a tree of directed shortest paths from a given node to all other nodes in a network of n nodes or finding a ...

This article gives a reformulation of the simplex method for quadratic programming having the advantage of generating tableaux with certain symmetry properties. It is proved that this method gives the ...

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.
