The calculation of economic lot sizes with more than one constraint on the system is a recognized problem in inventory control theory. This paper presents a simplex like solution procedure. The algorithm as presented can be readily adapted to other constraints which may arise in a specific application. The essential conditions for application are that the non-linear constraints and/or objective function be differentiable, convex functions. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
