The preceding chapters have focused on the details of writing applications that model optimization problems and access the solutions to those problems, with minimal attention to the optimizer that solves them, because most models are solved well by the default optimizers provided by ILOG CPLEX. For instances where a user wishes to exert more direct influence over the solution process, ILOG CPLEX provides a number of features that may be of interest.
This chapter and the next one tell you more about solving linear programs with the LP optimizers of ILOG CPLEX. This chapter emphasizes primal and dual simplex optimizers. It contains sections about:
