Gurobi Optimizer Delivers Non-Linear Solving
Nonlinear Solving
Nonlinear optimization extends Gurobi’s ability to model real-world systems where relationships between variables are not purely linear. Examples include equations with variables that are raised to powers greater than one, or those involving trigonometric, exponential, logarithmic, or other nonlinear functions. From energy systems and finance to engineering and logistics, Gurobi enables you to find globally or locally optimal solutions efficiently and reliably.
-
Gurobi Optimizer Delivers Parallel and Distributed Optimization
Parallel and Distributed Optimization
Gurobi was designed from the ground up for parallelism and distributed computing. Whether you run the Gurobi Optimizer on a single workstation, a multi-core cluster, or across cloud resources, Gurobi scales seamlessly to use all available computational power.
