iSolveModel vs SimplexLP

Looking for a mathematical model solver running on your iPad/iPhone/iPod Touch? This is iSolveModel, an easy-to-use linear programming optimizer running on iPad as well as on iPhone and using the simplex algorithm method with pivot as the main solver engine as well as an integrated MIP solver for 0-1 variables and integer numbers. The purpose of this application is to provide a linear programming solver for the iPad/iPhone/iPod Touch community as well as for students and teachers, particularly for those in Operations Research / Operations Management / Industrial Engineering or related courses (college/undergraduate students). Features: - Number of decision variables and constraints only limited by the available memory of the device - Sensitivity analysis reports on variable coefficients and right-hand side when solving pure linear models - Documents can be transferred via iTunes File Sharing - Mathematical models and solutions can be sent by email - Model documents are text files, no proprietary format - Solution documents as HTML - Supports all device orientations Benefits: - Affordable - Easy-to-use modeling, models are like the ones in textbooks - Fast learning curve

SimplexLP solves linear optimization problems, which can be mathematically described with an objective function and a set of constraints. With the new graphical representation (possible with 2 variables only) it is a lot easier to understand the theoretical concept of linear optimization! SimplexLP is the perfect learning companion for teachers (to set up problems) and students (to learn the Simplex algorithm). It is very easy to change coefficients and see how the solution varies. For the calculation the famous Simplex algorithm is used. With SimplexLP you can: – easily set up the objective function and the constraints; – solve maximization and minimization problems; – solve problems with unlimited number of variables and constraints; – solve problems with ≤, ≥ and = (in)equalities; – get all the possible solutions ("edges") to a problem; – get accurate calculations with fractions; – get your output in fractions or decimal values; – set a fixed value in the objective function, e.g. for fixed costs; – set the tab width (via a simple swipe gesture) to format the tableaus; – get a graphical representation of optimization problems with 2 variables. With SimplexLP linear optimization really makes fun!
