* Package name : coin-cbc Version : 1.2.0 Upstream Author : CBC mailing list <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> * URL : http://www.example.org/ * License : Common Public License (CPL), version 1.1 Programming Lang: C++ Description : COIN-OR Branch-and-Cut Mixed Integer Programming (MIP) solver Cbc (Coin-or branch and cut) is an open-source mixed integer programming solver written in C++. It is primarily meant to be used as a callable library, but a basic, stand-alone executable version is also available. Mixed integer programming (MIP) is a generalization of linear programming (LP) and allows to find the minimum solution of objective functions depending linearly on variables, which are linearly constrained and additionally may have integrality constraints. Cbc is part of the larger COIN-OR initiative (Computational Infrastructure for Operations Research) and depends on the COIN-OR Clp linear programming solver for solving subproblems. Cbc works well as independent solver (reading files in the MPS format) and as a solver backend for AMPL. Project homepage: https://projects.coin-or.org/Cbc (Additional comment: this package would complement both the existing light-weight solvers glpk and lp-solve very well, as Cbc is arguably the best heavy-weight open source MIP solver, approaching the quality of ilog Cplex.) -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.20 (PREEMPT) Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C (charmap=ANSI_X3.4-1968) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
