SoPlex is an optimization package for solving linear programming problems (LPs) based on an advanced implementation of the primal and dual revised simplex algorithm. It provides special support for ...

In this paper a new hybrid glowworm swarm algorithm (SAGSO) for solving structural optimization problems is presented. The structure proposed to be optimized here is a simply-supported concrete I-beam ...

The original version of this story appeared in Quanta Magazine. In 1939, upon arriving late to his statistics course at UC Berkeley, George Dantzig—a first-year graduate student—copied two problems ...

Numerical optimization procedures are now an integral part of the microwave design process. Ensuring reliability requires conducting parameter tuning at the electromagnetic (EM) analysis level. This, ...

The leading approach to the simplex method, a widely used technique for balancing complex logistical constraints, can’t get any better. In 1939, upon arriving late to his statistics course at the ...

In our journey through decision intelligence history, we've witnessed remarkable individual breakthroughs: Dantzig's simplex algorithm during the Berlin Airlift, von Neumann's duality principle, ...

Design of modern antenna systems has become highly dependent on computational tools, especially full-wave electromagnetic (EM) simulation models. EM analysis is capable of yielding accurate ...

Abstract: Particle swarm optimization (PSO), genetic algorithm (GA), and nonlinear simplex optimization method (SOM) are some of the most prominent gradient-free optimization algorithms in engineering ...
