Modi[u-v] method in Transportation Problem

Definition- Modi[u-v] or Modified distribution method is used to check optimality of the initial basic feasible solution determined by using any of the ibfs(initial basic feasible solution) methods viz. North-west corner rule, Least cost method and vogel's approximation method.



Procedure:

Step 1- Calculate ibfs(initial basic feasible solution).

Step 2- Check optimality conditions i.e. feasible solution has exactly m+n-1 number of allocations and all these allocations are at independent positions(it doesn't form a loop).

Step 3- Apply Modi method if above conditions satisfies. Calculate ui+vj=cij for occupied cells. Take u1=0 {u values along row and v values along column}.

Step 4- Calculate cij-(ui+vj) for unoccupied cells.

Step 5- If all values of cij-(ui+vj)  0 {Optimal solution}
Most -ve value enters (if not)
