Satish Serial Publishing House Non Linear Programming Techniques An Introduction by Thirunavukkarasu M
Linear Programming is a mathematical technique used to allocate scarce resources in an optimal way to minimize the costs or to maximize the revenue and thus, Linear Programming helps the farmers, managers, entrepreneurs, scientists and planners to solve the complex field problems to find the best possible solutions. Although Linear Programming is an easier technique, the real-world problems are very complex that the objective function and/or constraint equations are not always linear and hence, finding an optimal solution using Linear Programming is not feasible. In such cases, Non-Linear Programming techniques are used to provide reasonably realistic representations of real-world problems, so as to find optimal solutions for such problems. In spite of many advantages, Non-Linear Programming techniques are difficult to learn and understand. Also, reading materials on Non-Linear Programming techniques are only less than adequate to describe the techniques in simple ways that can better be understood by the potential users. This book on “Non-Linear Programming: An Introduction” has been written in an easy and uncomplicated way that can facilitate effortless learning of the techniques, by being able to help the readers to have a better understanding of how Non-Linear Programming can help to formulate a real world problem as a Non-Linear Programming problem and to solve the same effectively and interpret the results clearly.
