TY - GEN A1 - Bley, Andreas A1 - Gleixner, Ambros A1 - Koch, Thorsten A1 - Vigerske, Stefan T1 - Comparing MIQCP solvers to a specialised algorithm for mine production scheduling N2 - In this paper we investigate the performance of several out-of-the box solvers for mixed-integer quadratically constrained programmes (MIQCPs) on an open pit mine production scheduling problem with mixing constraints. We compare the solvers BARON, Couenne, SBB, and SCIP to a problem-specific algorithm on two different MIQCP formulations. The computational results presented show that general-purpose solvers with no particular knowledge of problem structure are able to nearly match the performance of a hand-crafted algorithm.
