    Why don't you give exact delivery time?

    Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

    Long description:

    This self-contained book provides a systematic account of the main algorithms derived from the simplex method and the means by which they may be organized into effective procedures for solving practical linear programming problems on a computer. The book begins by characterizing the problem and the method used to solve it, and goes on to deal with the practicalities of the subject, emphasizing concerns of implementation. The final section of the book discusses the basic principles of optimization: duality, decomposition, and homotopy. In conjunction with the simplex method, they each lead to other key algorithms of linear programming. The author's approach is distinguished by his detailed exploration of ideas and issues that centre on the need to structure data suitably, and to organize calculations in an efficient and numerically stable manner. Unlike many linear programming texts, the author's overall perspective is grounded in nonlinear programming rather than combinatorics.
