Gurobi’s Hidden Gems and Non Linear API Improvements
In this presentation, we will review powerful features that are part of the Gurobi Optimizer which can be used to take your applications to the next level. We provide tools to make it easy to incorporate multiple objectives, scenario analysis, nonlinear functions, and more into your optimization models. There are also features like warm starts and variable partitioning that can enhance the solver performance. We will also describe the latest changes to our API, which will allow you to define multi variate non linear functions, which in turn will be handled directly, without piece-wise linear approximations.

Practical Guidelines for Model Improvement and Reformulation
In this presentation, we will share insights and lessons learned from helping Gurobi customers from a wide range of industries adjust their optimization models to improve solver performance and numerical behavior. We will look at the challenges that we see most often in LP, MIP and MINLP models, and discuss our approach and typical recommendations to help address them. We will also consider some well-known modeling “rules of thumb” and discuss how applicable they are at present.
