[Bonmin] Using Bonmin to solve a large-scale MINLP problem

[Kleopatra Konstanteli]

Hello All,

I am a PhD student and I have been trying to solve the MINLP problem 
described in 
http://irmosproject.eu/Files/06_20091210_IRMOS-seminar_Advance%20Reservations.pdf 
(erroneously assumed to be a GGP problem). I have modelled a simplified 
version of it in Matlab and used the BnB solver of Yalmip to solve it. 
The results were very disappointing in terms of performance and 
scalability even for a small number of variables, and the problem has 
proven to be even harder to solve than expected.

I recently came across Bonmin, and from what I have gathered it can 
support large-scale MINLP. I have already installed it, and my plan is 
to use it from a C++ program.
Before getting started, I would like to kindly ask if someone could have 
a look at the specific problem and tell me whether I am on the right 
track using Bonmin. Please let me know if you would like more 
information about the problem.
 
Any help will be deeply appreciated.

Thank you in advance,
Kleopatra
