Is there a good set of linear programming / linear optimization video lectures somewhere? I found "Linear programming and Extensions" by Prof. Prabha Sharma, Department of Mathematics and Statistics, Indian Institute of Technology Kanpur. youtube.com/course?list=EC50F86BDF6873CED9 Are there other good ones? Thanks. – Dan Oct 21 '12 at 13:25
can be tagged as resources but these kinds of questions are best answered in tag infos which means these question may not be welcome at SE sites – MozenRath Dec 10 '12 at 12:11

What are the main categories for systems based on choices available for the `whole system` and `system parts`?

Mindless Systems: no choice for whole and parts i.g. mechanical systems (bike, engine...) Uni-Minded Systems: whole has choice while parts have not (single brain) i.g. biologic systems Multi-minded Systems: Both whole and parts has choice i.g. social organizations. – Xaqron May 10 at 0:41
