This paper presents a grid-enabled system for solving large-scale mixed integer programming (MIP) problems. The system has been developed using Globus and MPICH-G2, and consists of two solvers and of an interface portal. After a brief introduction to Branch, Cut and Price optimization algorithms, the paper focuses on the system architecture, solvers and portal user interface. The performance of system is measured and analyzed on a small-scale grid environment consisting of three clusters on a campus LAN.

Abstract

This paper presents a grid-enabled system for solving large-scale mixed integer programming (MIP) problems. The system has been developed using Globus and MPICH-G2, and consists of two solvers and of an interface portal. After a brief introduction to Branch, Cut and Price optimization algorithms, the paper focuses on the system architecture, solvers and portal user interface. The performance of system is measured and analyzed on a small-scale grid environment consisting of three clusters on a campus LAN.
