Separable Programming Analysis of Spatial Competitive Market Models
Abstract
The objective of this study is to analyze spatial competitive market equ i 1 i bri urn mode 1 s by separab 1 e programming. Separab 1 e programming is an application of grid linearization techniques for approximating nonlinear separable functions with linear segments. This paper uses a grid refinement program to generate different grid sizes, a matrix generator to convert MINOS input format to MPSX input format, a trans 1 a tor program to transform MPSX output standard format to a readable format, an inverse program to convert results of linear programs into the variables of the quadratic programs, an MPSX program to execute the MPSX package, a MINOS program to execute the MINOS package, and the MINIT program to execute linear programming problems.
