friend, Ya Yang. She was a great person and a talented scholar. In our
will always be with us.
The authors would like to thank Rungson Samroengraja, Manish Choudhury, Melanie Drake, Jenny
Poon and other students of Operations Consulting class, Spring 1998, Stern School of Business, NYU for
extensive testing and useful comments that helped debugging and improving LEKIN®.
The Academic version of LEKIN® is available for download. The Industrial version of the system is in the
design stage.
Lekin.exe (1.67MB)
Installation instructions.
• Select an installation directory for LEKIN®. Default is C:\Program Files\Lekin; you can change it
as you wish.
• Select a directory for LEKIN® algorithm files. Default is <ProgDir>\Alg, where <ProgDir> is the
main installation directory.
• If you intend to use LEKIN® for developing your own algorithms and sending them out, you
should identify yourself – more or less uniquely. Otherwise, when someone tries to import your
algorithm into his system, it may wipe out one of the previously imported algorithms. You should
choose a "call sign" for yourself. The name of your company, possibly accompanied by your own
name, should do the trick.
Upgrade instructions.
If you have a customized version of LEKIN® and would like to upgrade it, please do the following:
• Run Lekin.exe and follow the installation instructions. The original LEKIN® disk must be in the
drive throughout the installation.
Modification List.
Here is the list of modifications made in versions 2.2, 2.3, and 2.4.
• Bug fixed: LEKIN® crashes if the right mouse button is clicked on the program icon in the task
bar.
• Joined Print and Print Setup commands into the modified Print dialog box.
• Added the possibility to print the Gantt chart on more than one page.
