Linear Programming (Progress in Theoretical Computer Science)

By Peter Sprent

Book Overview

To this reviewer's knowledge, this is the first book accessible to the upper division undergraduate or beginning graduate student that surveys linear programming.... The presentation is admirable; Karloff's style is informal...without sacrificing anything necessary for understanding. ...Recommended highly for acquisition, since it is not only a textbook, but can also be used for independent reading and study.
