A mathematical optimization solver for large-scale optimization problems. It is independently developed by Cardinal Operations, and it includes high-performance solvers for LP, MIP, SDP, (MI)SOCP, convex (MI)QP, convex (MI)QCP and exponential cone programming.

The IBM ILOG CPLEX Optimizer solves integer programming problems, very large[3] linear programming problems using either primal or dual variants of the simplex method or the barrier interior point method, convex and non-convex quadratic programming problems, and convex quadratically constrained problems (solved via second-order cone programming, or SOCP).

Discrete Optimization Talks (DOTs) is a virtual seminar series from the Mixed Integer Programming Society (MIPS), a technical section of the Mathematical Optimization Society (MOS). Topics of interest are theoretical, computational, and applied aspects of integer and combinatorial optimization. The typical format of each session is two 30-minute talks.

The FICO Xpress optimizer is a commercial optimization solver for linear programming (LP), mixed integer linear programming (MILP), convex quadratic programming (QP), convex quadratically constrained quadratic programming (QCQP), second-order cone programming (SOCP) and their mixed integer counterparts. Xpress includes a general purpose non-linear solver, Xpress NonLinear, including a successive linear programming algorithm (SLP, first-order method), and Artelys Knitro (second-order methods).

GCG is a generic decomposition solver for mixed-integer programs (MIPs). It automatically performs a Dantzig-Wolfe reformulation and runs a full-fledged branch-price-and-cut algorithm to solve it to optimality. Alternatively, GCG is able to automatically apply a Benders decomposition.

For solving large-scale linear programming (LP), mixed integer programming (MIP), and other related problems. It is a set of routines written in ANSI C and organized in the form of a callable library.

Gurobi Optimizer is a prescriptive analytics platform and a decision-making technology developed by Gurobi Optimization, LLC. The Gurobi Optimizer (often referred to as simply, “Gurobi”) is a solver, since it uses mathematical optimization to calculate the answer to a problem.

Heuristic-based solver with great results in complex problems

HiGHS is open-source software to solve linear programming (LP), mixed-integer programming (MIP), and convex quadratic programming (QP) models.

To solve a sparse symmetric system of linear equations.

It features conversations between students, faculty and professionals around OR-related topics

Optimization software that leverages machine learning to provide unparalleled performance.

LINGO includes a set of built-in solvers to tackle a wide variety of problems. Unlike many modeling packages, all of the LINGO solvers are directly linked to the modeling environment.

A Mixed Integer Linear Programming (MILP) solver.

The Network consists of six academic and nine industrial participants from five EU countries, USA and Chile. The participants combine strong and complementary expertise, within industry sectors ranging from energy, retailing, insurance to banking, as well as national statistical offices.

SBB is a GAMS solver for Mixed Integer Nonlinear Programming (MINLP) models. It is based on a combination of the standard Branch and Bound (B&B) method known from Mixed Integer Linear Programming and some of the standard NLP solvers already supported by GAMS. SBB can use all GAMS NLP solvers as subsolvers but it works best with NLP solvers that can utilize a near optimal point as a starting point like Conopt, Minos, and Snopt.SBB supports all types of discrete variables supported by GAMS, including Binary, Integer, Semicont, Semiint, Sos1, and Sos2.

SCIP is currently one of the fastest non-commercial solvers for mixed integer programming (MIP) and mixed integer nonlinear programming (MINLP). It is also a framework for constraint integer programming and branch-cut-and-price.

SHOT (Supporting Hyperplane Optimization Toolkit) is a deterministic solver for mixed-integer nonlinear programming problems (MINLPs). Originally, SHOT was intended for convex MINLP problems only, but now also has functionality to solve nonconvex MINLP problems as a heuristic method without providing any guarantees of global optimality. SHOT can solve certain nonconvex problem types to global optimality as well.
