    Hello, 

    I read a blog from the internet about 'Individual optimizer parallel processing' and 'Nested Parallel Processing (https://www.tu-chemnitz.de/mathematik/discrete/manuals/cplex/doc/userman/html/moreUsing29.html), which really interests me, since this strategy could speed up my problem solving process. The rough idea is to use different thread setting for different solver (MIP, LP or QP) to make the most of the parallel computing. However, when I search in CPLEX online pool, I do not find any parameter like MIPthread, Barthread or Simthread, said in this blog. I would like to ask whether there is any change in the parameter naming or totally changed function. 

    I appreciate any feedback from you! 

     

    Best,

    Jasmin

    According to the copyright notice on the page you quoted, this is not some blog but a page from a 16 year old CPLEX manual.

    Many things have changed since then and I have some doubts that everything stated on this old page is still correct. As you already noticed, at least the names for parameters are different.

    The up-to-date version of this page is here.

    Can you please check whether this answers your questions? If not, can you please drop a message to daniel(dot)junglas(at)de(dot)ibm(dot)com, specifying what exactly you want to do. I can then tell you whether (and how) this is possible or not.
