OVERVIEW OF SELECTED INFORMATION TOOLS FOR LINEAR PROGRAMMING
Abstract
Currently, linear programming and operational analysis methods are used in optimizing fleet planning, crew scheduling, yield management and aircraft maintenance planning. In recent years, there has also been a significant increase in the availability of information tools that can solve these tasks in an automated way - from simple tools such as Excel Solver to specialised systems such as Gurobi or FICO Xpress. This article offers a comprehensive overview of selected information tools that can be used for linear programming. The available software tools were compared in terms of type, modelling approach, performance, licensing and practical suitability. It serves as a guide for the selection of a tool according to the nature of the task, the scope of the model and the technical or licensing capabilities of the organisation.
