<b>LEMON</b> stands for <b>L</b>ibrary for <b>E</b>fficient <b>M</b>odeling and
|
|
kpeter@25
|
25 |
<b>O</b>ptimization in <b>N</b>etworks. It is a C++ template library providing
|
|
kpeter@25
|
26 |
efficient implementations of common data structures and algorithms with
|
|
kpeter@25
|
27 |
focus on combinatorial optimization tasks connected mainly with graphs
|
|
kpeter@32
|
28 |
and networks.

This library helps to write programs that solve various optimization problems,
|
|
kpeter@25
|
36 |
which often arise when designing and testing certain networks,
|
|
kpeter@6
|
37 |
for example in telecommunication, computer networks, logistics, scheduling,
|
|
kpeter@6
|
38 |
and other areas.
|
|
kpeter@57
|
39 |
A very natural way of modeling these networks is by means of a graph.
|
|
kpeter@25
|
40 |
Generally, if you want to write any program that works with graphs,
|
|
kpeter@6
|
41 |
then you might find it useful and convenient to use LEMON.

This tutorial introduces the reader to the basic concepts and features of
|
|
kpeter@6
|
49 |
LEMON, and there are also some sections about advanced topics showing the
|
|
kpeter@6
|
50 |
power of various tools implemented in the library.
|
|
kpeter@3
|
51 |
|
|
kpeter@6
|
52 |
After getting familiar with the basics of the library, you may start using
|
|
kpeter@25
|
53 |
LEMON with the help of the detailed documentation (which can be viewed
|
|
kpeter@6
|
54 |
as a reference manual).
