Dear Sir,

I'm a PhD student at the Technical University of Vienna and I'm working on a dynamic analysis tool for malware. For our project we need to solve some very easy lp instances and right now we are using the PPL. Right now, however, we are encountering some equally easy Integer Linear Programming instances. Is there a way to solve those problems using the PPL? We think it is a great piece of software and it would be a pity if we had to switch.

Thanks in advance!

Dear Andy,

yes, the CVS HEAD version of the PPL (i.e., what around January 2007 will become PPL 0.10) has a new MIP_Problem class that can solve Mixed Integer Programming problems. If you don't mind working with experimental software, we can prepare a snapshot release for you. All the best,

Roberto
