A new LP algorithm for precedence constrained production scheduling

We present a number of new algorithmic ideas for solving LP relaxations of extremely large precedence constrained production scheduling problems. These ideas are used to develop an implementation that is tested on a variety of real-life, large scale instances; yielding optimal solutions in very practicable CPU time.
