Hey Joey, I'm interested in using your software though Matlab for a power systems problem. I was wondering a) Is it straightforward to use your software with glpkmex b) are you to define the partitions for a decentralised implementation easily. Well done for putting this together. I'm very surprised that there's no other open source implementations of it out there (although I'm discovering the hard way on Matlab at the moment that there's quite a few subtleties that a lot of the books don't tease out. Bazaraa I'm finding provides by far the clearest explanation on it by far of the different sources I've tried) Thanks, Paul Joey Rios wrote: > > > Hi all, > Just wondering if anyone on the list has used dwsolver.
