Chapter Chapter 1 in Linear Programming Using MATLAB®, 2017, pp 1-11 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract The Linear Programming (LP) problem is perhaps the most important and well-studied optimization problem. Numerous real world problems can be formulated as Linear Programming problems (LPs). LP algorithms have been used in many fields ranging from airline scheduling to logistics, transportation, decision making, and data mining. This chapter introduces some key features of LP and presents a brief history of LP algorithms. Finally, the reasons of the novelty of this book and its organization are also presented.
