Applications of the method of linear programming were first seriously attempted in the late 1930s by the Soviet mathematician Leonid
Kantorovich and by the American economist Wassily Leontief in the areas of manufacturing schedules and of economics, respectively, but their
work was ignored for decades. During World War II, linear programming was used extensively to deal with transportation, scheduling, and
allocation of resources subject to certain restrictions such as costs and availability. These applications did much to establish the acceptability of
this method, which gained further impetus in 1947 with the introduction of the American mathematician George Dantzig's simplex method, which
greatly simplified the solution of linear programming problems. However, as increasingly more complex problems involving more variables were
attempted, the number of necessary operations expanded exponentially and exceeded the computational capacity of even the most powerful
computers. Then, in 1979, the Russian mathematician Leonid Khachian discovered a polynomial-time algorithm--i.e., the number of
computational steps grows as a power of the number of variables, rather than exponentially--thereby allowing the solution of hitherto inaccessible
problems. (from the Encyclopedia Brittanica Article)
