General Micro-benchmarks: Julia performs almost as fast as C • 10X faster than Python • 100X faster than R & MATLAB Performance benchmark relative to C. A value of 1 means as fast as C. Lower values are better. A real application: Gillespie simulations in systems biology 745x faster than R • Gillespie simulations are used in the field of drug discovery. • Also used for simulations of epidemiological models to study disease propagation • Julia package (Gillespie.jl) is the state of the art in Gillespie simulations • https://github.com/openjournals/joss- papers/blob/master/joss.00042/10.21105.joss.00042.pdf Implementation Time per simulation (ms) R (GillespieSSA) 894.25 R (handcoded) 1087.94 Rcpp (handcoded) 1.31 Julia (Gillespie.jl) 3.99 Julia (Gillespie.jl, passing object) 1.78 Julia (handcoded) 1.2 Those who convert ideas to products fastest will win Computer Quants develop Scientists prepare algorithms The last 25 years for production (Python, R, SAS, DEPLOY (C++, C#, Java) Matlab) Quants and Computer Compress the Scientists DEPLOY innovation cycle collaborate on one platform - JULIA with Julia Julia offers competitive advantages to its users Julia is poised to become one of the Thank you for Julia.

W. Churchilla 4, 130 67 Praha 3, Czech Republic Abstract JABLONSKÝ JOSEF. 2015. Benchmarks for Current Linear and Mixed Integer Optimization Solvers. Acta Universitatis Agriculturae et Silviculturae Mendelianae Brunensis, 63(6): 1923–1928. Linear programming (LP) and mixed integer linear programming (MILP) problems belong among very important class of problems that ﬁ nd their applications in various managerial consequences. The aim of the paper is to discuss computational performance of current optimization packages for solving large scale LP and MILP optimization problems. Current market with LP and MILP solvers is quite extensive. Probably among the most powerful solvers GUROBI 6.0, IBM ILOG CPLEX 12.6.1, and XPRESS Optimizer 27.01 belong. Their attractiveness for academic research is given, except their computational performance, by their free availability for academic purposes. The solvers are tested on the set of selected problems from MIPLIB 2010 library that contains 361 test instances of diﬀ erent hardness (easy, hard, and not solved). Keywords: benchmark, linear programming, mixed integer linear programming, optimization, solver INTRODUCTION with integer variables need not be solved even Solving linear and mixed integer linear in case of a very small size of the given problem. optimization problems (LP and MILP) that Real-world optimization problems have usually belong to one of the most o en modelling tools, many thousands of variables and/or constraints.

Optimization of the Algal Biomass to Biodiesel Supply Chain: Case Studies of the State of Oklahoma and the United States
processes Article Optimization of the Algal Biomass to Biodiesel Supply Chain: Case Studies of the State of Oklahoma and the United States Soumya Yadala 1, Justin D. Smith 1, David Young 2, Daniel W. Crunkleton 1 and Selen Cremaschi 2,* 1 Russell School of Chemical Engineering, The University of Tulsa, Tulsa, OK 74104, USA; [email protected] (S.Y.); [email protected] (J.D.S.); [email protected] (D.W.C.) 2 Department of Chemical Engineering, Auburn University, Auburn, AL 36830, USA; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected] Received: 29 February 2020; Accepted: 15 April 2020; Published: 18 April 2020 Abstract: The goal of this work is to design a supply chain network that distributes algae biomass from supply locations to meet biodiesel demand at specified demand locations, given a specified algae species, cultivation (i.e., supply) locations, demand locations, and demand requirements. The final supply chain topology includes the optimum sites to grow biomass, to extract algal oil from the biomass, and to convert the algae oil into biodiesel. The objective is to minimize the overall cost of the supply chain, which includes production, operation, and transportation costs over a planning horizon of ten years. Algae production was modeled both within the U.S. State of Oklahoma, as well as the entire contiguous United States. The biodiesel production cost was estimated at $7.07 per U.S. gallon ($1.87 per liter) for the State of Oklahoma case. For the contiguous United States case, a lower bound on costs of $13.68 per U.S.

CME 338 Large-Scale Numerical Optimization Notes 2
Stanford University, ICME CME 338 Large-Scale Numerical Optimization Instructor: Michael Saunders Spring 2019 Notes 2: Overview of Optimization Software 1 Optimization problems We study optimization problems involving linear and nonlinear constraints: NP minimize φ(x) n x2R 0 x 1 subject to ` ≤ @ Ax A ≤ u; c(x) where φ(x) is a linear or nonlinear objective function, A is a sparse matrix, c(x) is a vector of nonlinear constraint functions ci(x), and ` and u are vectors of lower and upper bounds. We assume the functions φ(x) and ci(x) are smooth: they are continuous and have continuous first derivatives (gradients). Sometimes gradients are not available (or too expensive) and we use finite difference approximations. Sometimes we need second derivatives. We study algorithms that find a local optimum for problem NP. Some examples follow. If there are many local optima, the starting point is important. x LP Linear Programming min cTx subject to ` ≤ ≤ u Ax MINOS, SNOPT, SQOPT LSSOL, QPOPT, NPSOL (dense) CPLEX, Gurobi, LOQO, HOPDM, MOSEK, XPRESS CLP, lp solve, SoPlex (open source solvers [7, 34, 57]) x QP Quadratic Programming min cTx + 1 xTHx subject to ` ≤ ≤ u 2 Ax MINOS, SQOPT, SNOPT, QPBLUR LSSOL (H = BTB, least squares), QPOPT (H indefinite) CLP, CPLEX, Gurobi, LANCELOT, LOQO, MOSEK BC Bound Constraints min φ(x) subject to ` ≤ x ≤ u MINOS, SNOPT LANCELOT, L-BFGS-B x LC Linear Constraints min φ(x) subject to ` ≤ ≤ u Ax MINOS, SNOPT, NPSOL 0 x 1 NC Nonlinear Constraints min φ(x) subject to ` ≤ @ Ax A ≤ u MINOS, SNOPT, NPSOL c(x) CONOPT, LANCELOT Filter, KNITRO, LOQO (second derivatives) IPOPT (open source solver [30]) Algorithms for finding local optima are used to construct algorithms for more complex optimization problems: stochastic, nonsmooth, global, mixed integer.
