A Dual Affine Scaling Based Algorithm for Solving Linear Semi-Infinite Programming Problems

In this paper we study a class of linear semi-infinite programming problems with finitely many variables and infinitely many constraints over a compact metric space. A dual affine scaling based algorithm which adds one constraint at a time is introduced. The convergence proof of the proposed algorithm together with some numerical experience are also included.
