The dual method of solving the linear programming problem

C. E. Lemke

Naval Research Logistics Quarterly, 1954, vol. 1, issue 1, 36-47

Abstract: Many problems in logistics are capable of being formulated as linear programming problems. For example, one such problem is the so‐called transportation problem, which is concerned with obtaining the best way (in the sense of least time, or of least expense, etc.) of shipping stipulated quantities of materials from m origins to n destinations. This paper develops a new computational method of solving general linear programming problems.
