Linear bi-level programming problems- a review

[[abstract]]Multilevel programming is characterized as mathematical programming to solve decentralized planning problems. During the last 10 years, a special case of the multilevel programming problem, the linear bi-level programming (BLP) problem, has been studied with increasing interest in the area of mathematical programming problems. This paper attempts to review the literature on the linear BLP problems. It presents the basic models and the characterizations of the problem, the areas for application, the existing solution approaches, and the related models and areas for further research[[fileno]]2020401010012[[department]]工工
