[net.math] Info wanted on Karmarkar algorithm

winston@cubsvax.UUCP (Ken Winston) (12/07/84)

I am looking for a source of information on Narendra Karmarkar's
new algorithm for linear programming. Has it been published yet?
Does anyone have a reference?

Thanks,

Ken Winston

A reference was posted to the THEORY mailing list on MILNET a couple
of weeks ago.  I haven't read the paper.

The Karmarkar algorithm was presented at STOC (Symposium on Theory of
Computing) on May 1, 1984 (STOC '84, p. 302)
"A New Polynomial time Algorithm on Linear Programming".
The STOC proceedings are available from the ACM if your
location doesn't have them.

Anyone have an informed opinion?
