Solver Technology: Revolutionizing Optimization and Analytics

Optimization

Frontline Systems has a very rich technology platform for solving optimization problems.  Compared to other software vendors' offerings, Frontline's optimization technology is uniquely comprehensive:  It includes state-of-the-art software for the full range of optimization problems, from "traditional" linear, quadratic and mixed-integer programming to new conic and convex optimization, powerful nonlinear optimization, global optimization, non-smooth optimization using genetic and evolutionary algorithms, and constraint programming methods from artificial intelligence.

We make all this technology easy for you to use through one uniform graphical user interface and application programming interface, whether you use our Premium Solver Pro or Solver SDK products.  The following pages will take you on a tour of Frontline's solver technology.

• Linear Programming (LP) and Quadratic Programming (QP)
• Quadratic Constraints and Second Order Cone Programming (SOCP)
• Mixed-Integer Programming (MIP) and Constraint Programming (CP)
• Smooth Nonlinear Optimization (NLP)
• Global Optimization (GO)
• Nonsmooth Optimization (NSP)
