SoPlex80bit

The NEOS Server offers SoPlex80bit for the exact solution of linear programming problems. SoPlex is a linear programming solver based on the revised simplex algorithm. Beyond standard floating-point computation it can solve LPs exactly over the rational numbers using a high-level iterative refinement procedure combined with a rational LU factorization and continued fraction approximations.

SoPlex was originally written by Roland Wunderling and is actively developed by the Department of Optimization at Zuse Institute Berlin. The exact functionality is mainly due to Ambros Gleixner and Daniel Steffy.

For added numerical robustness the NEOS installation uses 80bit extended-precision for the floating-point routines. Documentation of the floating-point routines and further information can be found on the SoPlex homepage.

This solver was implemented by Hans Mittelmann and executes at
