Generalizing Reduced Simplex Method
In Sects. 7.3–7.7, the general LP problem in form (7.11) was converted to the bounded-variable problem (7.13), and the latter was then solved by a generalized primal or dual simplex method. In this chapter, the primal and dual reduced simplex methods will

Preface
Linear programming (LP) (Dantzig 1948, 1951a,b,c) might be one of the most well-known and widely used mathematical tools in the world. As a branch of optimization, it serves as the most important cornerstone of operations research, decision science, and management science. This branch of study emerged when the American mathematician George B. Dantzig proposed the LP model and the simplex method in 1947. The computer, emerging around the same period, propelled the development of LP and the simplex method toward practical application. As a basic branch of study, LP orchestrated the birth of a number of new fields, such as nonlinear programming, network flow and combinatorial optimization, stochastic progra
