OPT_ALGORITHM

Description:

This parameter determines the algorithm used by the Optimizer to generate an initial relaxed solution to a scheduling problem. While the relaxed solution is always the same for a given schedule, the choice of algorithm can change the length of time needed to find the relaxed solution.

Do not change this parameter value before contacting Infor Consulting Services.

Valid Values:
  • 2 - Dual simplex
  • 3 - Primal simplex
  • 4 - Barrier (For some problems, the barrier algorithm can work faster. However, this algorithm consumes significantly more memory.)
