The increase of computing power of the microcomputers has stimulated the building of direct manipulation interfaces that allow graphical representation of Linear Programming (LP) models. This work discusses the components of such a graphical interface as the basis for a system to assist users in the process of formulating LP problems. In essence, t...
In this paper, we compare three nested loops parallelization algorithms (Allen and Kennedy's algorithm, Wolf and Lam's algorithm and Darte and Vivien's algorithm) that use different representations of distance vectors as input. We identify the concepts that make them similar or different. We study the optimality of each with respect to the dependen...
The subroutine SOK solves a set of N simultaneous linear equations by an essentially iterative method. For the method to converge at a reasonable rate (or at all) the user must choose K(
The Critical Path Method (CPM) and the Repetitive Scheduling Method (RSM) are the most often used tools for the planning, scheduling and control Linear Repetitive Projects (LRPs). CPM focuses mostly on project’s duration and critical activities, while RSM focuses on resource continuity. In this paper we present a linear programming approach to addr...
