Abstract
This book presents a survey of usable multilevel methods for modeling and solving decision problems in economics and management. The methods are largely extensions of linear programming and fall within the realm of column generation and decomposition. About one third of the book is concerned with methods and the rest describes case studies where these methods have actually been used. They are taken from areas such as national and regional economic planning, production planning, and transportation planning.
