    Mixed-Integer Linear Programming (MIP) is applicable to such a wide range of real-world decision problems that the competition for the best code to solve such problems has lead to tremendous progress over the last decades. While current solvers can solve some of the problems that seemed completely out-of-reach just 10 years ago, there are always … Read more

    Mixed-integer programming (MIP) problem is arguably among the hardest classes of optimization problems. This paper describes how we solved 21 previously unsolved MIP instances from the MIPLIB benchmark sets. To achieve these results we used an enhanced version of ParaSCIP, setting a new record for the largest scale MIP computation: up to 80,000 cores in … Read more
