Abstract

In
this paper presented are the methods for solving optimization problems, when
there is a need to find the optimal value. This value may be minimum or maximum
range. For example: the required profit and expenses of a company or
institution, transport & costs minimization, computer network management,
economic management of financial requirements. Also, given is an adequate
method to optimize the function (objective function). The simplex method, Pivot
method, and another approximation method, are the model that can help solving
the question of the max and min problem. Here, presented are the program codes
and the same implemented into C ++ and codes MATLAB. By applying these methods
of optimization, we can have a direct approach and chance to minimize or
maximize the objective function: which is the key point in creating certain
optimum value. An optimization method has a practical use; this practical use is
demonstrated through certain examples.
