Abstract：
Linear programming (LP), together with the simplex method, remain a core topic in Operations Research, Computer Science and Mathematics since 1947.
Due to the relentless research effort, a linear program can be solved today one million times faster than it was done thirty years ago. Businesses, large and small,
now use LP models to control manufacture inventories, price commodities, design civil/communication networks, and plan investments.
LP even becomes a popular subject taught in under/graduate and MBA curriculum, advancing human knowledge and promoting science education.
The aim of the talk is to describe several recent exciting progresses on LP and the simplex method, and its applications in emerging sciences and industries.
