Abstract
A graph G for purposes here is a finite set of elements called vertices and a finite set of elements called edges such that each edge meets exactly two vertices, called the end-points of the edge. An edge is said to join its end-points.

The emphasis in this paper is on relating the matching problem to the theory of continuous linear programming, and the algorithm described does not involve any "blind-alley programming" -which, essentially, amounts to testing a great many combinations.
