Introduction
Linear programming and optimization techniques are essential in system analysis. Therefore, it is important to learn linear and nonlinear programming optimization problems and their solutions. This course enables learners to appreciate optimization concepts and common tools including linear programming and nonlinear programming. The learners are expected to be able to formulate mathematical optimization problems from their practical and daily management problems and from budget planning scenarios.
This course is part of:
-
Graduate Certificate in Computer Control and Automation
- FlexiMasters
in Computer Control and Automation
Upon completion, learners should:
1. Formulate linear and nonlinear programming optimization problems;
2. Use SIMPLEX method to find the optimal solution of Linear Programming;
3. Solve Transportation optimization problem and Job Assignment problem;
4. Obtain optimal solution for single variable nonlinear optimization and;
Linear Programming
Linear Programming and Simplex method. Duality and sensitivity analysis. Transportation and assignment problems. Applications examples for budget planning, operation management.
Optimization Techniques
Unconstrained optimization: Fibonacci, golden section Newton’s and other methods. Optimization with equality and inequality constraints: nonlinear optimization, Kuhn-Tucker conditions, quadratic programming.
