iSolveModel 4.1

The iSolveModel application offers a practical solution for users seeking a mathematical model solver on their iPad, iPhone, or iPod Touch. Designed with an emphasis on usability, it provides a linear programming optimizer that employs the simplex algorithm with pivot operations as its core computational method. Additionally, it features an integrated MIP solver capable of handling 0-1 variables and integer constraints. The primary aim of this tool is to serve students and educators within the fields of Operations Research, Operations Management, Industrial Engineering, and related disciplines.

Key features include:

• The capacity to accommodate decision variables and constraints limited only by device memory
• Sensitivity analysis reports highlighting variable coefficients and right-hand side values when solving pure linear models
• Facilitated document transfer via iTunes File Sharing
• Ability to send models and solutions through email
• Use of plain text files for model documents, ensuring openness and compatibility
• HTML format for solution outputs
• Support for all device orientations

Advantages of the application are:

• Cost-effective compared to desktop solutions
• User-friendly modeling interface that resembles textbook examples
• Minimal learning curve for new users
