Abstract

Linear programming (LP) and mixed integer linear programming (MILP) problems belong among very important class of problems that find their applications in various managerial consequences. The aim of the paper is to discuss computational performance of current optimization packages for solving large scale LP and MILP optimization problems. Current market with LP and MILP solvers is quite extensive. Probably among the most powerful solvers GUROBI 6.0, IBM ILOG CPLEX 12.6.1, and XPRESS Optimizer 27.01 belong. Their attractiveness for academic research is given, except their computational performance, by their free availability for academic purposes. The solvers are tested on the set of selected problems from MIPLIB 2010 library that contains 361 test instances of different hardness (easy, hard, and not solved).
