When discussing several disadvantages of linear programming


When discussing several disadvantages of linear programming; clearly explain the reasons for your choices. Linear programming has its limitations or disadvantages when an issue cannot be expressed as an equation with a straight line correlation between the issue or object function and the constraints that have been set. In other words, most problems that arise are curves or bumps in the road and cannot be shown as a straight line issue. The math or linear equation cannot take into account everyday uncertainties. As an example weather in our area, lately, has been unusually rainy. The linear equations can tell us what our schedule is and that we can completed the schedule on time, but cannot foresee that we cannot make the delivery, because the bridge down the road washed out and the trailers cannot transport in or out. The program cannot account for the unexpected occurrence and therefore is a disadvantage. It is a straight line system with variables that are linear in manner and linearity cannot be managed in all areas.
