Premium Solver
by Frontline Systems
Premium Solver is an advanced version of the Solver found in Microsoft Excel. Premium Solver includes a more powerful optimisation engine, faster calculations, and new reporting features - all integrated seamlessly into Microsoft Excel. The fast problem setup feature means problems can be defined up to 50 times faster.

Premium Solver for Excel 9.0
Premium Solver is an upgrade for the standard Microsoft Excel Solver. It's 100% upwardly compatible from the standard Solver with the capacity to solve much larger problems - up to 2,000 variables - at speeds anywhere from three to 100 times faster than the standard Solver. If you've run up against the size limits of the standard Solver (200 decision variables) or found it too slow, upgrade to the Premium Solver today. More...

Premium Solver Platform 9.0
Solve much larger problems - up to 2,000 variables - at speeds five to twenty times faster than the standard Solver. And the Premium Solver Platform is expandable with Field-Installable Solver Engines to handle problems of virtually unlimited size. Many users solve problems with hundreds of thousands of variables and constraints. More...

Large-Scale LP/QP Solver Engine Version 9.0
The Large-Scale LP/QP Solver engine extends the power the Premium Solver Platform to handle much larger linear programming and quadratic programming problems. It is a field-installable solver engine that plugs into the Premium Solver Platform and takes advantage of the new Polymorphic Spreadsheet Interpreter. The Standard Large-Scale LP/QP Solver can handle linear programming (LP) and quadratic programming (QP) problems of up to 32,000 variables and 32,000 constraints, while the Extended Large-Scale LP/QP Solver does not have a fixed limit on variables and constraints.

MOSEK Solver Engine Version 9.0
The MOSEK Solver Engine extends the power of the Premium Solver Platform to solve linear (LP), quadratic (QP), quadratically constrained (QCP) and second order cone programming (SOCP) problems. The Extended MOSEK Solver Engine provides the additional capability to solve smooth convex nonlinear optimisation (NLP) problems. The Standard MOSEK Solver can solve problems of up to 32,000 variables and 32,000 constraints, while the version does not have any fixed limits on variables and constraints. These solver engines also supports integer variables and 'alldifferent' constraints. More...

XPRESS Solver Engine Version 9.0
The XPRESS Solver Engine extends the power of the Premium Solver Platform to handle linear programming problems with up to millions of variables and constraints, with no fixed limits on problem size. It solves mixed-integer linear (LP/MIP) problems with great speed and supports the 'alldifferent' constraint in the Premium Solver Platform. More...
-
Large-Scale GRG Solver Engine Version 9.0
The Large-Scale GRG Solver Engine extends the power of the Premium Solver Platform to handle smooth nonlinear optimisation problems. The Standard Large-Scale GRG Solver Engine solves problems of up to 4,000 variables and 4,000 constraints while the Extended Large-Scale GRG Solver Engine solves problems of up to 12,000 variables and 12,000 constraints. This engine solves global optimisation problems using the 'multistart' or 'clustering' methods and supports integer variables as well as 'alldifferent' constraints. More...
-
Large-Scale SQP Solver Engine Version 9.0
The Large-Scale SQP Solver Engine solves linear, integer, quadratic, conic, smooth nonlinear, and even non-smooth optimisation problems that are far larger than what the Premium Solver Platform can handle as there are no fixed limits on problem size. It plugs into the Premium Solver Platform and takes special advantage of its new Polymorphic Spreadsheet Interpreter. Version 8.0 solves non-smooth problems using an integrated hybrid Evolutionary Solver and solves global optimisation problems using either the Evolutionary Solver or the 'multistart' methods. Furthermore, it supports integer variables and 'alldifferent' constraints. More...
-
KNITRO Solver Engine Version 9.0
The KNITRO Solver Engine extends the power of the Premium Solver Platform to handle smooth nonlinear optimisation problems with no fixed limits on the number of variables and constraints. This is a field-installable solver engine that plugs into the Premium Solver Platform, and takes advantage of its new Polymorphic Spreadsheet Interpreter. The solver engine solves global optimisation problems using the 'multistart' or 'clustering' methods. This provides greatly improved performance, especially on problems with integer variables and 'alldifferent' constraints. More...
-
OptQuest Solver Engine Version 9.0
The OptQuest Solver Engine employs metaheuristics such as tabu search and scatter search to solve nonsmooth optimisation problems of up to 5,000 variables and 1,000 constraints. It is a new field-installable engine that plugs into the Premium Solver Platform and takes advantage of its Polymorphic Spreadsheet Interpreter. The engine handles models with any Excel formulas and functions, yet finds remarkably good solutions with unprecedented speed. Furthermore, it supports integer variables and 'alldifferent' constraints. More...
