L. V. Kantorovich

L. V. Kantorovich was a mathematician and economist who developed methods for optimizing resource allocation and decision-making, especially in production and transportation. Recognized for creating linear programming, he devised mathematical models to find the most efficient ways to distribute resources, minimizing costs or maximizing profits. His work allows organizations and governments to make smart, data-driven decisions about complex logistics, supply chains, and economic planning. Kantorovich’s innovations have had a lasting impact on operational research, enabling more effective and efficient use of resources in various industries worldwide.
