---|
23 | |
---|
24 | <b>LEMON</b> stands for <b>L</b>ibrary for <b>E</b>fficient <b>M</b>odeling and |
---|
25 | <b>O</b>ptimization in <b>N</b>etworks. It is a C++ template library providing |
---|
26 | efficient implementations of common data structures and algorithms with |
---|
27 | focus on combinatorial optimization tasks connected mainly with graphs |
---|
28 | and networks. |
---|
29 | |
---|
30 | <b>LEMON is an <a class="el" href="http://opensource.org/">open source</a> |
---|
31 | project. |
---|
32 | You are free to use it in your commercial or non-commercial applications |
---|
33 | under very permissive \ref license "license terms".</b> |
---|
34 | |
---|
35 | This library helps to write programs that solve various optimization problems, |
---|
36 | which often arise when designing and testing certain networks, |
---|
37 | for example in telecommunication, computer networks, logistics, scheduling, |
---|
38 | and other areas. |
---|
39 | A very natural way of modeling these networks is by means of a graph. |
---|
40 | Generally, if you want to write any program that works with graphs, |
---|
41 | then you might find it useful and convenient to use LEMON. |
---|

---|
47 | |
---|
48 | This tutorial introduces the reader to the basic concepts and features of |
---|
49 | LEMON, and there are also some sections about advanced topics showing the |
---|
50 | power of various tools implemented in the library. |
---|
51 | |
---|
52 | After getting familiar with the basics of the library, you may start using |
---|
53 | LEMON with the help of the detailed documentation (which can be viewed |
---|
54 | as a reference manual). |
