| Description: | High-level solution strategy for the MIP solver |
The MIP Focus parameter controls the high-level solution strategy for
mixed integer programming models. The parameter can take the following
values:
- Balanced (value = 0, default)
- By default, the MIP solver strikes a balance between finding new
feasible solutions and proving that the current solution is optimal.
- Feasibility (value = 1)
- Focuses on finding feasible solutions quickly. This can be
useful if the default setting does not find a feasible (incumbent)
solution in a reasonable time.
- Optimality (value = 2)
- Focuses of finding high quality solutions.
- Best Bound (value = 3)
- This setting can be useful if the best objective bound is moving
very slowly (or not at all).
