  Hi Ali,

  Thank you very much for your reply.. Just a clarification, what do
  you mean that glpsol would not solve MIP problem with less than 20
  integer variables? Do you mean that it takes a very, very long time?
  In term of hours or in term of days to solve 20 integer variables?

  Thank you.

  Rdgs,

  Paul

  Dear Paul,

  The number of integer variables is just one thing. I think i have a
  MIP problem with less than 20 integer variables and glpsol would not
  be able to solve it.

  You should first improve and / or simplify your model rather than
  change the code of the GLPK.
  Or try a commercial solver such as ILOG CPLEX 10 and see what that
  can
  do, it is not likely you could write a better (general purpose)
  solver
  than that.

  You should also try a higher version of GLPK because as far as i know
  the MIP part was improved since 4.19.

  Good luck,

  Ali
