AIMMS + CPLEX: The Added Value

> Run different solvers side by side
> Run different solvers in a complex workflow, together
> Run optimization sessions using the solvers in a distributed way, out of the box
> Our solver links are sparse by nature. Their efficiency has been proven by thousands of users.

> Get outstanding support to use the solver in the best possible way
> Automatic solver updates
> Gain flexibility: change solvers when you need to
>Easily build heuristics around the model and use of the solver to speed up solves, sometimes by up to 80%

> Use the unique AIMMS Math Program Inspector and extensive model diagnostic tools to detect and solve problems quickly
> Address model scaling issues with ease
> Deploy quickly and securely
> Use a robust optimization add-on on top of CPLEX when needed

About IBM ILOG CPLEX

IBM ILOG CPLEX is a high-performance optimization solver for linear, mixed-integer and quadratic programming. With the CPLEX solver in AIMMS, you get access to CPLEX’s speed and robustness coupled with a state-of-the-art modeling platform to build and deploy apps 10-20 times faster.

Build and Deploy Optimization-based Apps at Speed

Low code Model Builder

Model any business and research problem that needs solving in an intuitive way that is readable for non-mathematicians. Use common libraries or share custom libraries to standardize and exchange code between models.

UI Builder

Create modern web-based user interfaces while you develop your model using a rich set of interactive charts and UX components to provide a friendly experience for decision maker. No coding required.

Algorithmic Capabilities

A rich set of world class mathematical solvers combined with a strong algorithmic framework help you optimize your decision problems and evaluate the best scenarios under all conditions.

Data Management

The AIMMS Data Exchange library is your one-stop resource for consuming and providing REST APIs, and mapping data formats in your model.

Advanced Diagnostics

Save time and effort fixing errors. A set of diagnostic tools, such as a debugger, a profiler, and a one-of-a-kind math program inspector, are right at your disposal.

Deployment

From inside AIMMS Development, you can package your application and deploy it in one-step for use by decision makers. Apps can be deployed with an interactive UI or as a service to be called through an external API.

AIMMS supports more than 10 different solvers, including:

Speed Up Processing Times for Specific Use Cases with ODH-CPLEX

ODH-CPLEX is a solver add-on that makes use of CPLEX and is developed by Optimization Direct. ODH-CPLEX is a high performance solver for Mixed Integer Programming (MIP) and Mixed Integer Quadratic Programming (MIQP/MIQCP) problems. The solver is designed to run on modern multiprocessor machines. Its engine exploits many cores by breaking complex models into sub-models, and solving them into parallel threads. In some cases, it’s been found to improve model performance by 50-100%, over the standard use of CPLEX.
