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
Ja Rule with Ashanti, "Mesmerize" with Ashanti, and "Wonderful" with R. Kelly and Ashanti. During the 2000s, Ja Rule was signed to Murder Inc. Records, formerly known as The Inc. Records and led by Irv Gotti. Due to his hits with his collaborators, Ja Rule has earned four Grammy nominations, and has had six top-ten albums, two of which, "" (2000) and "Pain Is Love" (2001), topped the US "Billboard" 200. Ja Rule was born Jeffrey Bruce Atkins on February 29, 1976, to Debra and William Atkins in Hollis, a section of the Queens borough of New York City. Jeffrey's father left
