Detailed Description

Abstract base class for `objects'.

The branching model used in Osi is based on the idea of an object. In the abstract, an object is something that has a feasible region, can be evaluated for infeasibility, can be branched on (i.e., there's some constructive action to be taken to move toward feasibility), and allows comparison of the effect of branching.

This class (OsiObject) is the base class for an object. To round out the branching model, the class OsiBranchingObject describes how to perform a branch, and the class OsiBranchDecision describes how to compare two OsiBranchingObjects.

To create a new type of object you need to provide three methods: infeasibility(), feasibleRegion(), and createBranch(), described below.

This base class is primarily virtual to allow for any form of structure. Any form of discontinuity is allowed.

As there is an overhead in getting information from solvers and because other useful information is available there is also an OsiBranchingInformation class which can contain pointers to information. If used it must at minimum contain pointers to current value of objective, maximum allowed objective and pointers to arrays for bounds and solution and direction of optimization. Also integer and primal tolerance.

Classes which inherit might have other information such as depth, number of solutions, pseudo-shadow prices etc etc. May be easier just to throw in here - as I keep doing

Member Function Documentation

OsiObject& OsiObject::operator= ( const OsiObject rhs  ) 
virtual OsiObject* OsiObject::clone (  )  const [pure virtual]
virtual double OsiObject::infeasibility ( const OsiSolverInterface solver,
int &  whichWay 
) const [virtual]

Infeasibility of the object.

This is some measure of the infeasibility of the object. 0.0 indicates that the object is satisfied.

The preferred branching direction is returned in whichWay, where for normal two-way branching 0 is down, 1 is up

This is used to prepare for strong branching but should also think of case when no strong branching

The object may also compute an estimate of cost of going "up" or "down". This will probably be based on pseudo-cost ideas

This should also set mutable infeasibility_ and whichWay_ This is for instant re-use for speed

Default for this just calls infeasibility with OsiBranchingInformation NOTE - Convention says that an infeasibility of COIN_DBL_MAX means object has worked out it can't be satisfied!

Reimplemented in CbcObject.
