Abstract

In this note a method is given to find an independent cell for allocation of an infinitesimally small amount (ɛ) in a degenerate solution of a transportation problem. The suggested method of locating the independent cell ensures improvement of the solution or recognition of its optimality, thereby avoiding unnecessary iterations that result in shifting of the ɛ from one independent cell to another.
