Linear programming (LP, or linear optimization) is a mathematical method for determining a way to achieve the best outcome (such as maximum profit or lowest cost) in a given mathematical model for some list of requirements represented as linear relationships.

If some or all of the unknown variables are required to be integers, then the problem is called an integer programming (IP) or integer linear programming (ILP) problem. 0-1 integer programming or binary integer programming (BIP) is the special case of integer programming where variables are required to be 0 or 1 (rather than arbitrary integers).

This package includes an GUI application for input the model and an implementation of the Implicit Enumeration algorithm.

This Software is written is C and uses GTK+ 3 for the GUI. It uses LaTeX to render reports and Graphviz to draw the branches of problem tree.

Install dependencies:

sudo apt-get install build-essential texlive libgtk-3-dev graphviz

Then build and run:

cd download/dir
./configure
make
./bin/main

Install development Software:

sudo apt-get install glade geany git devhelp libgtk-3-doc

We use Kernel code standards except that identation is 4 spaces wide:

This package is developed with Gtk+ and glib:

• http://developer.gnome.org/glib/stable/
• http://developer.gnome.org/gtk3/stable/
