2.3 SELECTED LP APPLICATIONS
This section presents realistic LP models in which the definition of the variables
and the construction of the objective function and constraints are not as straightforward
as in the case of the two-variable model. The areas covered by these applications
include the following:
1. Urban planning.
2. Currency arbitrage.
3. Investment.
4. Production planning and inventory control.
S. Blending and oil refining.
6. Manpower planning.
Each model is fully developed and its optimum solution is analyzed and interpreted
