hegyi@2122: 
hegyi@2122: LEMON is the abbreviation of Library of Efficient Models
hegyi@2122: and Optimization in Networks. It is an open source
hegyi@2122: library written in C++. It provides a set of easy-to-use
hegyi@2122: implementation of common data structures and algorithms
hegyi@2122: in the area of optimization and helps implementing new
hegyi@2122: ones. It is an especially suitable tool to solve the
hegyi@2122: design and optimization problems of telecommunications
hegyi@2122: networks. To achieve wide usability, a fundamental design
hegyi@2122: requirement is the genericity of interface of data
hegyi@2122: structures and algorithms. Lemon is intended to become an
hegyi@2122: open source library in order to involve people all around
hegyi@2122: the world in its development.
