     1.7 +
     1.8 +LEMON is the abbreviation of Library of Efficient Models and
     1.9 +Optimization in Networks. It is an open source library written in
    1.10 +C++. It provides a set of easy-to-use implementation of common data
    1.11 +structures and algorithms in the area of optimization and helps
    1.12 +implementing new ones. It is an especially suitable tool to solve the
    1.13 +design and optimization problems of telecommunications networks. To
    1.14 +achieve wide usability, a fundamental design requirement is the
    1.15 +genericity of interface of data structures and algorithms. LEMON is an
    1.16 +open source library end invites people all around the world in its
    1.17 +development.

    1.49 +
    1.50 +  Some demonstration programs to make you easier to getting familiar
    1.51 +  with LEMON. Use --enable-demo configure option to also compile these
    1.52 +  codes (see also INSTALL).
    1.53 +
    1.54 +test/
    1.55 +
    1.56 +  Contains programs to check the integrity and correctness of
    1.57 +  LEMON. The command 'make check' performs these tests.
    1.58 +
    1.59 +benchmark/
    1.60 +  
    1.61 +  Contains programs measuring the performance of LEMON. Use
    1.62 +  --enable-benchmark configure option to also compile these codes (see
    1.63 +  also INSTALL).
