Abstract

Linear programming is a branch of mathematics belonging to mathematical optimization methods. It provides a very useful mathematical tool for solving a lot of problems in economy where a great number of variables as well as many conditions representing restrictions for these variables are involved. The methods of linear programming can be efficiently applied also to many problems in engineering.
