     5 LEMON is the abbreviation of Library of Efficient Models
       
     6 and Optimization in Networks. It is an open source
       
     7 library written in C++. It provides a set of easy-to-use
       
     8 implementation of common data structures and algorithms
       
     9 in the area of optimization and helps implementing new
       
    10 ones. It is an especially suitable tool to solve the
       
    11 design and optimization problems of telecommunications
       
    12 networks. To achieve wide usability, a fundamental design
       
    13 requirement is the genericity of interface of data
       
    14 structures and algorithms. Lemon is intended to become an
       
    15 open source library in order to involve people all around
       
    16 the world in its development.

    18 The subdirectories 'autopackage', 'build-aux' and 'm4' are
       
    19 needed by installation. In subdirectory 'benchmark'
       
    20 programs can be found that observe the performance of LEMON.
       
    21 Subdirectory 'demo' contains some demonstration programs to
       
    22 make you easier to getting familiar with LEMON. Documentation
       
    23 of LEMON can be found in subdirectory 'doc'. Source code of
       
    24 LEMON is in subdirectory 'lemon'. Some useful scripts related
       
    25 to the usage of LEMON can be found in subdirectory 'scripts'.
       
    26 In subdirectory 'test' you can find some programs, proofing
       
    27 you the correctness of some implementations.
