Presentation of the BiqBin project at the 3rd AIROYoung Workshop of Rome.

On March 28, the PhD student from Alpen-Adria-Universität, Nicolo Gusmeroli, gave a talk at the 3rd AIROYoung Workshop in which he presented the exact penalty method over discrete sets used in the max-cut algorithm. He showed also the latest computational results.

BiqBin workshop at Alpen Adria University Klagenfurt

21. 2. 2019, Janez Povh

BiqBin team had a regular workshop, devoted to monitoring the progress in the last few months and preparing the plans for the following 3 months.

At the workshop, we evaluated:
- the new version of the BiqBin web server,
- the structure of the benchmark library,
- the new parallel solver for the stable set problem;
- pilot code for the exact penalty approach to solve binary quadratic problems with linear constraints and it comparison with CPLEX solver;

We also made a dissemination plan for 2019.
Summing up, the project is progressing well and several excellent publications will be finished soon.

Presentation of the latest developments of the BiqBin project at the UG Workshop 2019 in Berlin.

At the First International UG Workshop 2019 on parallel algorithms in tree search and mathematical optimization we presented our BiqBin project.

The presentation was given by Timotej Hrga, a PhD student working on this project. He presented the latest developments in the design of the parallel algorithm and showed numerical results for the stable set problem.
