WebSim is a program that uses the simplex method to solve small Linear
Optimization Problems.
It was developed by
and Jake Hawkes at Arizona State University with the support
of a grant from the
through their
program.
The latest version (June 2009) was enhanced by Josh Wolfe.
WebSim can also be used to solve systems of linear equalities as well as
inequalities, with or without nonnegativity restrictions on its variables.
Its main function is more pedagogical and exploratory than practical,
illustrating various pivoting options and methods, especially when used in
tandem with the inquiry-based textbook,
