Python compiling with third party tools

2015-12-25 Thread Ping Liu
I am developing an open source software for optimization purpose. We have interface to a list of solvers or solver interfaces like Openopt, Cylp, GLPK, CBC, SCip, Cplex, etc. Now the sponsor asks us to compile the python code, and wrap all the third party tools with it so that they do not need to i

Hi, Oscar, Your feedback is very valuable to me since you dig into the problem itself. Basically, we are trying to develop an open source software with multiple interface to several free solvers so that we can switch among them in case one of them is not working or so efficient. The optimizati

Dear All, I am working on an optimization problem, where we are trying to minimize some indicators like energy usage, energy cost, CO2 emission. In this problem, we have a bunch of energy conversion technologies for electricity and thermal purpose, such as heat pump, boiler, chiller, etc.. We are
