Cunningham's Rule constructions because they tend to average out how many times a variable pivots. It has recently been shown by David Avis and Oliver Friedmann that there is a family of linear programs on which the simplex algorithm equipped with Cunningham's rule requires exponential time. Cunningham's Rule In mathematical optimization, Cunningham's rule (also known as least recently considered rule or round-robin rule) is an algorithmic refinement of the simplex method for linear optimization. The rule was proposed 1979 by W.H. Cunningham to defeat the deformed hypercube constructions by Klee and Minty et. al. (see, e.g. Klee–Minty cube). Cunningham's rule assigns a
The Mirror (Ja Rule album) The Mirror (Ja Rule album) The Mirror is the first mixtape by rapper Ja Rule, originally planned to be released in 2007.
