Parameter IloCplex.IntParam.RootAlg also controls the algorithm used for solving the first continuous relaxation when solving a MIP. The algorithm for solving all subsequent continous relaxations is then controlled by the parameter IloCplex.IntParam.NodeAlg. The algorithm choices appear in Table 2.4
