| 10:15am | Latest Enhancements in Gurobi 11.0 This talk will give an overview of what’s new in our latest Gurobi 11.0 release. We’ll talk about performance improvements to Gurobi’s core algorithms, as well as new features for supporting nonlinear functions (polynomials, power functions, logs and exponentials, and trigonometric functions). These new nonlinear capabilities enhance our existing piecewise-linear approximation support (i.e. dynamic approximations to nonlinear functions) from version 10.0 – resulting in more accurate results than a static approximation in less time.
