Description

Discrete Optimization Problems and methods in discrete optimization. Linear programming: problem formulation, the simplex method, software, and applications. Network models: assignment problems, max-flow problem. Directed graphs: topological sorting, dynamic programming and path problems, and the travelling salesman's problem. General graphs: Eulerian and Hamiltonian paths and circuits, and matchings. Lectures, 3 hours per week; lab, 1 hour per week. Prerequisite(s): MATH 1P11 or 1P12 Note: this course may be offered in multiple modes of delivery. The method of delivery will be listed on the academic timetable, in the applicable term. Software Fee Required. Completion of this course will replace previous assigned grade and credit obtained in MATH 2P72.
