Abstract

This paper presents ideas from goal programming (GP) used as an accompaniment to linear programming (LP) for the analysis of LP infeasibility. A new algorithm (GPIIS) for the detection of irreducibly inconsistent systems (IIS) of constraints is presented using this approach. The structure necessary for implementing such a procedure into a commercial LP solver is outlined. Results for a selection of infeasible LP problems are given, and conclusions drawn.
