摘要
We present an extension to the subgradient algorithm to produce primal as well as dual solutions. It can he seen as a fast way to carry out an approximation of Dantzig-Wolfe decomposition. This gives a Fast method for producing approximations for large scale linear programs. It is based on a new theorem in linear programming duality. We present successful experience with linear programs coming from set partitioning, set covering, max-cut and plant location.
