Hello,<br>
<br>
I would like to know how Bonmin uses initial feasible solutions. As<br>
provided by the AMPL interface, one can pass initial variable values<br>
to the solver.<br>
<br>
Does Bonmin simply use the associated objective value as a cut-off<br>
value or can it use the feasible point to provide some further<br>
advantage to the solution process?<br>
<br>
I found the post at<br>

but some more information would be great.<br>
