Abstract:
This paper introduces the algorithmic design and implementation of Tulip, an open-source interior-point solver for linear optimization. It implements a regularized homogeneous interior-point algorithm with multiple centrality corrections, and therefore handles unbounded and infeasible problems. The solver is written in Julia, thus allowing for a flexible and efficient implementation: Tulip’s algorithmic framework is fully disentangled from linear algebra implementations and from a model’s arithmetic. In particular, this allows to seamlessly integrate specialized routines for structured problems. Extensive computational results are reported.
