50 Years of Integer Programming 1958-2008 From the Early Years to the State-of-the-Art /

In 1958, Ralph E. Gomory transformed the field of integer programming when he published a short paper that described his cutting-plane algorithm for pure integer programs and announced that the method could be refined to give a finite algorithm for integer programming. In January of 2008, to commemo...
