Hi,

Is there a way to launch various solver in parallel at the same time?

Best reagards,

I figure out you mean several instance of some model with different data. Can you confirm.

If my previous assertion is true, the answer to your question is no.

The CP Optimizer library is multiple thread safe. If the model instantiation you code is also multiple threads safe, you must distribute the different instances on the calculation servers by yourself.

Hope that helps

Hi,

It's just that I thought it was possible to run parallel instances.

One more question (i'm a beginner in this world) what do you mean by " model instantiation you code is also multiple threads safe".

Thank you for yor help.

Regards

May be I have not been clear enough.

You can solve an instance of a model in parallel using several threads with CP Optimizer. The parameter to considers is IloCP::Workers that give the number of thread working to solve one mode, There is no predefined way to solve the same model on different machine neither to run different instance of model in parallel: You must develop your own layer for such cases.

By " model instantiation you code is also multiple threads safe".I mean if you want to share your own code between several threads you must take care it is safe. That is several threads cannot modify the same data concurrently without protection: for example a global data must be the same for all thread.

.I hope it is clearer.

Cheers
