Abstract:
In this thesis, we have studied the established traditional simplex methods of Dantzig for solving linear programming problem (LP) by replacing one basic variable by one non-basic variable at each simplex iteration, suggest to generalize the traditional simplex methods for solving linear programming problem (LP) by replacing more than one (P, where P • 1) basic variables by non-basic variables at each simplex iteration and compare the methods between themselves. To apply these methods on large-scale real life linear programming problem, we need computer-oriented program of these methods. To fulfill this purpose, we developed computer program based on (MATHEMATICA) language of these methods and apply on a sizable large-scale real life linear programming problem of a garment industry and textile mill scheduling problem. In this thesis we also developed a computational technique using mathematica codes to show the feasible region of two-dimensional linear programming problems accurately as well as this method also gives the optimal solution. Finally, conclusion is drawn in favour of the developed generalized simplex method.
