Technical Session of CLPEX C++ Concert Technology



Dear ISE students (Undergraduate and Graduate),

Subject: INFORMS chapter at MSU technical session on CPLEX C++ concert technology

MSU INFORMS Student Chapter is organizing a technical  session on Friday (January 24) from 3.30 to 5.00 pm in the Brannan conference room (just outside the ISE office). We will use the final 30 minutes only if we need to. Md. Sadekuzzaman Roni is the speaker of the session.

FYI, CPLEX is an widely used optimization  software from IBM ILOG, and CPLEX C++ concert technology facilitates embedding of CPLEX code in C++ programs.

You will need to come with your own laptop with CPLEX and  C++ (e.g. visual studio) installed in it if you want to acquire the full benefit from the session. You can still come and watch the presentation without a laptop. Following are some links to download and install CPLEX and C++. If you have difficulty downloading and installing them, feel free to see or email Roni for help (including installation files). Note that you will be able to download Cplex from the IBM site only after becoming a member of their academic initiative.
