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.

We analyze the problem of finding the first basic solution in the two phases simplex algorithm. Also, a modification and several improvements of the simplex method are introduced. We report ...

This is a preview. Log in through your library . Abstract A version of a two-phase simplex technique is given for manually solving those linear-programming problems in which artificial vectors are ...
