[SEC]intro_lemon[SEC] What is LEMON

<b>LEMON</b> stands for <b>L</b>ibrary of <b>E</b>fficient <b>M</b>odels and
<b>O</b>ptimization in <b>N</b>etworks. It is a C++ template
library aimed at combinatorial optimization tasks, especially those
working with graphs and networks.

<b>LEMON is an <a class="el" href="http://opensource.org/">open&nbsp;source</a>
project.
You are free to use it in your commercial or non-commercial applications
under very permissive \ref license "license terms".</b>

This library helps to write programs that solve optimization problems
that arise frequently when designing and testing certain networks,
for example in telecommunication, computer networks, logistics, scheduling,
and other areas.
A very natural way of modelling these networks is by means of a graph.
Generally if you want to write any program that works with graphs,
then you might find it useful and convenient to use LEMON.

[SEC]intro_tutorial[SEC] LEMON Tutorial

This tutorial introduces the reader to the basic concepts and features of
LEMON, and there are also some sections about advanced topics showing the
power of various tools implemented in the library.

After getting familiar with the basics of the library, you may start using
LEMON with the help of the detailed documentation (that can also be used
as a reference manual).
