HiGHS: A High-Performance Linear Optimizer
Contributed talk at OR60: The 60th OR Society Conference, 11-13 September 2018
Julian Hall
Abstract
This talk will present HiGHS, a growing open-source repository of high-performance software for linear optimization based on award-winning computational techniques for the dual simplex method. The talk will give an insight into the work which has led to the creation of HiGHS and then set out the features which allows it to be used in a wide range of applications. Plans to extend the class of problems which can be solved using HiGHS will be set out. HiGHS is free for academic use under the MIT license, and the terms of its commercial use will be defined.
