Using Parallel Optimizers in the Interactive Optimizer
If necessary for your platform, set any operating system environment variable needed for parallel operation. See
Threads
and platform considerations for the various parallel optimizers (
MIP
,
nested
,
barrier
, or
simplex
) for details.
Start the parallel implementation of the ILOG CPLEX Interactive Optimizer with the command
parcplex
(or
cplex
on machines where a separate executable is not needed) at the operating system prompt.
Set the thread-limit, as explained in
Threads
.
Enter and populate your problem object as usual.
Call the parallel optimizer with the appropriate command:
Parallel MIP Optimizer
mipopt
Parallel Barrier Optimizer
baropt
Parallel Simplex Optimizer
primopt
or
tranopt
