This type of problem is known as distribution or transportation problem in which the key idea is to minimize the cost or the time of transportation. In previous lessons we have considered a number of specific linear programming problems. Transportation problems are also linear programming problems and can be solved by simplex method but because of practical significance the transportation problems are of special interest and it is tedious to solve them through simplex method.

Mathematical Programming: An Overview 1 Management science is characterized by a scientific approach to managerial decision making. It attempts to apply mathematical methods and the capabilities of modern computers to the difficult and unstructured problems confronting modern managers. It is a young and novel discipline. Although its roots can be traced back to problems posed by early civilizations‚ it was not until World War II that it became identified as a respectable and well defined body of

Integer Programming 9 The linear-programming models that have been discussed thus far all have been continuous‚ in the sense that decision variables are allowed to be fractional. Often this is a realistic assumption. For instance‚ we might 3 easily produce 102 4 gallons of a divisible good such as wine. It also might be reasonable to accept a solution 1 giving an hourly production of automobiles at 58 2 if the model were based upon average hourly production‚ and the production had the interpretation
