set parallel_mode

set parallel_mode#

Choose the parallel mode CPLEX uses when solving a problem in parallel. Default behaviour is to ensure deterministic result behaviour, the opportunistic setting lets CPLEX fully utilize the parallel processing without guaranteed reporoducability, and the automatic setting lets CPLEX decide based on the problem

Options

/deterministic, /auto, /opportunistic

Set parallel mode in CPLEX#

It is possible to set the parallel mode in CPLEX with the command:

set parallel_mode /<option>

Comment

deterministic

Multiple runs will reproduce the same solution

opportunistic

Multiple runs may produce different solutions. Less synchronization compared to deterministic

auto

CPLEX decides the mode

If command not set: The deterministic option will be used
