Abstract

The SS method is a direct method proposed for deriving an optimal solution towards transportation problem. This method solves the problem optimally. Herewith in this research paper, an optimal solution is evinced by row/ column reduction to form a transformed matrix by the systematic allocation of zero by position. Paramount benefit this method produces is lessened the time for calculation, interoperability, and negating degeneracy but not limited to these. Examples herewith make the case for better understanding this method.
