In this sequel to "Model Building in Mathematical Programming", the author explains mathematical programming through numerical examples solved independently of any computer system, together with a commentary on the nature of the methods. The examples are intended to motivate the discussion and help with understanding, and definitions are introduced in context rather than formally. The same example is treated by different methods so that the temptation to tailor examples to methods is avoided. Moreover, the numerical ...

In this sequel to "Model Building in Mathematical Programming", the author explains mathematical programming through numerical examples solved independently of any computer system, together with a commentary on the nature of the methods. The examples are intended to motivate the discussion and help with understanding, and definitions are introduced in context rather than formally. The same example is treated by different methods so that the temptation to tailor examples to methods is avoided. Moreover, the numerical examples used (some taken from MBMP) are sufficiently small to be solvable by hand, although computer packages will be of use in some of the exercises. The main aim of the text is to describe methods for solving the general models of linear programming, separable non-linear programming and integer programming.
