Information about “BEST-PLAN 2 OF 3 (690,1105 ALSO IN SET)”

BEST-PLAN is a mathematical modeling package which simplifys analysis
with a build-in modeling language, a report writer and multiple
analyses "what-if" capability thru a build-in database management
system.

The general goal of designing a linear programming planning system like
BEST-PLAN was to put maximum analytical power into the hands
of the people directly concerned with the problem, with only a
minimum of specialized knowledge or experience on the part of the user,
and at the same time give him the advantages of mathematical
modeling for planning.

LIMITATIONs in the DEMO PACKAGE: Systems operations are intended for
demonstrations ONLY! Limitations are incorporated. The user is allowed
only to execute the supplied samples. In summary:

~  The user CANNOT create a NEW problem/model.
~  The user CANNOT Optimize a master PLAN.
~  The user CANNOT modify the  BEST-PLAN  environment
file  (BP-ENV.CON) other than change screen  color
and disk assignments.
~  The problem size has been limited to 6,000 elements
elements=(no. of rows) * (2 * no. of rows + no. of columns)

System Requirements: 512K memory and a hard drive.

    BEST-PLAN is a mathematical modeling package that simplifies analysis
by having a built-in modeling language, a report writer and multiple
analyses of "what-if."

    The general goal of designing a linear programming planning system like
BEST-PLAN was to put the most analytical power into the hands of people
directly concerned with the problem, to require only a minimum of
specialized knowledge or experience on the part of the user, and at the
same time give him the advantages of mathematical modeling for planning.

    LIMITATIONS in the DEMO PACKAGE: Systems operations are intended for
demonstrations ONLY! Limitations are incorporated. The user is allowed only
