ILog CPlex

Optimize business decisions with business optimization models

Functionality

IBM ILOG® CPLEX® Optimization Studio is a useful tool for tackling artificial or real-world business problems by developing optimization models to implement. It uses decision optimization technology to develop and deploy optimization models quickly and create real-world applications that can significantly improve business outcomes. It has an Interactive Optimizer running as an executable program that can read a problem either interactively or from a text file, solve it and then deliver a solution. The CPLEX Optimizer uses mathematical programming technology to enable the decision optimization and improve efficiency, reduce costs, and increase profitability. IBM also provide some tutorials on how to develop the optimization models and how to create and run a model in Python.
