Sharma and Prasad [2] have given an efficient heuristic (complexity O(n3) procedure to give a very good primal solution (that is generally non-basic feasible solution) to transportation problem by using the very good dual solution given by Sharma and Sharma [2]. In this paper we use the solution given by Sharma and Prasad [2] to get a very good Basic Feasible Solution to transportation problem, so that network simplex (worst case complexity (O(n3*(log(n))) can be used to reach the optimal solution to transportation problem. In the second part of this paper, we give a simple heuristic procedure to get a very good BFS to linear programming problem from the solution given by Karmarkar [3] (that generally produces a very good non-basic feasible solution in polynomial time (O(n5.5)). We give a procedure to obtain a good BFS for LP by starting from the solution given by Karmarkar [3]. We note that this procedure (given here) is significantly different from the procedure given in [4].展开更多

The transport cost minimization through the corridor is the main objective. Consequently, the transport modes that offer the least cost to the transport supply chain are proposed. To attain this goal the paper aims to identify the optimal location for an intermodal terminal on the Togolese corridor, by using the mathematical linear programming model. For this, three transport scenarios are analyzed, the rail, the road, and the combination of these two transport modes to each of the landlocked countries (LLCs) capital cities of Burkina Faso, Mali and Niger. Data of the average transport cost per mode, the cargo demand of the LLCs, and the distances from origin to destinations are input in the LINGO software. Based on the optimization results, we find that among the preselected terminals, the city of Mango located at 550 km in the northern part of the country is the optimal host location for an intermodal terminal along the Togolese corridor. The results of this study may be helpful to transport policy makers in the quest of rendering better servicing to the landlocked countries.展开更多

This work was motivated by the observed and anticipated miscalculations which Golden Guinea Breweries was bound to face if appropriate linear programming techniques were not applied in determining the profit level. This study therefore aims at using Simplex Method to create a Mathematical Model that will optimize the production of brewed drinks for Golden Guinea Breweries Plc. The first methodology involved the collection of sample data from the company, analyzed and the relevant coefficients were deployed for the coding of the model. Secondly, the indices collected from the first method were deployed in the software model called PHP simplex, an online software for solving Linear Programming Problem to access the profitability of the organization. The study showed that Linear Programming Model would give a high profit coefficient of N9,190,862,833 when compared with the result obtained from the manual computation which gave a profit coefficient of N7,172,093,375. Also, Bergedoff Lager, Eagle Stout and Bergedoff Malta were found not to contribute to overall profitability of the company and it was therefore recommended that their productions should be discontinued. It also recommends that various quantities of Golden Guinea Lager (1 × 12) and Golden Guinea Lager (1 × 24) should be produced.展开更多

Recently, a new approach called Gravity Sliding algorithm [1] has emerged. It is a gradient descending method whereby the descending trajectory slides along the inner surfaces of a polyhedron until it reaches the optimal point. In R3, a water droplet pulled by gravitational force traces the shortest path to descend to the lowest point. As the Gravity Sliding algorithm emulates the water droplet trajectory, it exhibits strongly polynomial behavior in R3. We believe that it could be a strongly polynomial algorithm for linear programming in Rn too. In fact, our algorithm can solve the Klee-Minty deformed cube problem in only two iterations, irrespective of the dimension of the cube. The core of gravity sliding algorithm is how to calculate the projection of the gravity vector g onto the intersection of a group of facets, which is disclosed in the same paper [1]. In this paper, we introduce a more efficient method to compute the gradient projections on complementary facets, and rename it the Sliding Gradient algorithm under the new projection calculation.展开更多

In this approach, first by defining a new formulation in the calculus of variations, an optimal control problem, equivalent to the original problem, is obtained. Then, a metamorphosis is performed in the space of problem by defining an injection from the set of admissible trajectory-control pairs in this space into the space of positive Radon measures. Using properties of Radon measures, the problem is changed to a measure-theo- retical optimization problem. This problem is an infinite dimensional linear programming (LP), which is approximated by a finite dimensional LP. The solution of this LP is used to construct an approximate solution for the original path planning problem. Finally, a numerical example is included to verify the effectiveness of the proposed approach.展开更多

Unlike the original method and its some variants, we need not to compute the inverse of the basic matrix at each iteration, or to solve the linear systems with the basic matrix. In fact, to compute the new support feasible solution, the simplex pivoting rule is used by introducing a matrix that we will define. This variant is called “the Pivot Adaptive Method” (PAM);it allows presenting the resolution of a given problem under the shape of successive tables as we will see in example. The proofs that are not given by Gabasov will also be presented here, namely the proofs for the theorem of the optimality criterion and for the theorem of existence of an optimal support, and at the end, a brief comparison between our method and the Simplex Method will be given.展开更多
