MINOS¶

MINOS is an established choice for both linear and nonlinear optimization problems. It incorporates proven methods for large-scale sparse nonlinear constraints, and its methods are especially effective for nonlinear objectives subject to linear and near-linear constraints.

How to use it¶

ampl: option solver minos; # change the solver
ampl: option minos_options 'option1=value1 option2=value2'; # specify options
ampl: solve; # solve the problem

How to install using amplpy:

# Install Python API for AMPL:
$ python -m pip install amplpy --upgrade

# Install AMPL & solver modules:
$ python -m amplpy.modules install minos # install MINOS

# Activate your license (e.g., free ampl.com/ce or ampl.com/courses licenses):
$ python -m amplpy.modules activate <your-license-uuid>

How to use:

from amplpy import AMPL
ampl = AMPL()
...
ampl.solve(solver="minos", minos_options="option1=value1 option2=value2")
