- INTEREST IN MIXED INTEGER PROGRAMMING (MPSX ON 360/91 AT CCN)
-
- MPSX is a newer version of the IBM project MPS, used for integer
- programming. From what I've been told, MPSX outperforms the previous
- package. In addition, it has available a feature of mixed integer
- programming.
-
- Since MPSX is an IBM product, an installation which uses it is
- charged a fixed rental fee per month. At the present time, CCN does
- not have this processor with its system. We are anticipating asking
- them to install it, with the mixed integer programming option. We
- are looking for any other users from the Network who may need this
- software in order to prorate the cost between several installations.
- The initial estimate of the cost is $130/month, plus $225 for the
- mixed integer programming feature. A share of this cost would be
- assigned to each user of the system. I am told by Robert Bell of CCN
- that they could take care of those details for us.
-
- If you have an interest in this, I urge you to contact me within
- the month. If you have questions about the mixed integer programming
- feature of the MPSX system itself, you could contact:

- Of course, in the meantime, the system MPS is available on the
- CCN system.
