A Short Course in Linear Programming

Second, study the problems in the glossary: study their properties and the meaning of their duals.

Third, look up the following terms in my glossary:

• Activity analysis
• Complementary slackness, Complementary variables
• Dual price
• Efficient frontier
• Forcing substructure
• Marginal price
• Max Flow - Min Cut theorem
• Multiple objectives
• Optimal response function
• Parametric analysis
• Pareto optimum
• Range of compatibility
• Rates of substitution
• Recourse model
• Reduced cost
• Redundant constraint
• Reformulation
• Requirements space
• Response space
• Robust optimization
• Sensitivity analysis
• Strictly complementary
• Tolerance approach
• Utility function
