Abstract
We present a new linear-programming algorithm that is simple, effective, fully parallelizable, and immediately implementable on personal computers as well as on more sophisticated machines. Sufficient conditions are found that guarantee the convergence of the algorithm. Some applications are given showing that the applicability of the algorithm is actually wider than indicated by the theoretical results.
