Formulate linear and integer programming problems for solving commonly encountered optimization problems. Understand how approximation algorithms compute solutions that are guaranteed to be within ...

The approximation theory developed in [11] is used to determine the piecewise polynomial approximability of solutions of elliptic problems on polygonal domains in R 2 and polyhedra in R 3. From these ...

This paper offers a qualitative theoretical analysis of the error that may arise when a linear programming calculation is used to solve a problem involving some ...
