Customer Reviews:
Great book for learning on your own October 27, 2003 John Von Essen (Philadelphia, PA USAPhiladelphia, PA United States) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I was actually a student in Professor Byrne's class at Penn State University when he and Professor Vaserstein were working on the book. The bulk of the course material and layout of that course eventually became the core of this book. This is good because the course was excellent. With no experience in LP (linear programming) you easily move through this book from cover to cover. Both graphical and SIMPLEX methods are thoroughly discussed. The examples are very good and they demonstrate real world applications.
