Abstract

In this chapter we take up some additional techniques of a mostly practical nature: the handling of linear programs with explicitly bounded variables; the construction of a starting (feasible) basis; structured linear programs; the steepest-edge rule for column selection; the rare (but possible) exponential behavior of the Simplex Algorithm. Each of these is a large subject in its own right, so we shall limit our discussion to the most important fundamental concepts.
