Model File Formats
- The
MPS, REW,
LP, RLP,
ILP, OPB
DLP, and DUA
formats are used to hold optimization models.
- The
MST format is used to hold MIP start data.
Importing this data into a MIP model allows optimization to start
with a known feasible solution.
- The
HNT format is used to hold MIP hints.
Importing this data into a MIP model guides the MIP search towards
a guess at a high-quality feasible solution.
- The ORD
format is used to hold MIP variable branching priorities. Importing
this data into a MIP model affects the search strategy.
- The
BAS format holds simplex basis information.
Importing this data into a continuous models allows the simplex
algorithm to start from the given simplex basis.
- The
SOL and
JSON solution formats are used to hold solution
information. The latter includes additional information about
the results of the optimization.
Both formats can only be written after the model has been optimized.
- The ATTR format stores a collection of
attributes of a model, including (multiple) MIP starts, solution,
basis information, partitions, variable hints and branching
priorities.
- The PRM format holds parameter values.
Importing this data into a model changes the values of the referenced
parameters.
