A1 - Witzig, Jakob T1 - The SCIP Optimization Suite 3.2 N2 - The SCIP Optimization Suite is a software toolbox for generating and solving various classes of mathematical optimization problems. Its major components are the modeling language ZIMPL, the linear programming solver SoPlex, the constraint integer programming framework and mixed-integer linear and nonlinear programming solver SCIP, the UG framework for parallelization of branch-and-bound-based solvers, and the generic branch-cut-and-price solver GCG. It has been used in many applications from both academia and industry and is one of the leading non-commercial solvers. This paper highlights the new features of version 3.2 of the SCIP Optimization Suite. Version 3.2 was released in July 2015. This release comes with new presolving steps, primal heuristics, and branching rules within SCIP. In addition, version 3.2 includes a reoptimization feature and improved handling of quadratic constraints and special ordered sets. SoPlex can now solve LPs exactly over the rational number and performance improvements have been achieved by exploiting sparsity in more situations. UG has been tested successfully on 80,000 cores. A major new feature of UG is the functionality to parallelize a customized SCIP solver. GCG has been enhanced with a new separator, new primal heuristics, and improved column management. Finally, new and improved extensions of SCIP are presented, namely solvers for multi-criteria optimization, Steiner tree problems, and mixed-integer semidefinite programs.

T1 - Parallel-in-Time for Parabolic Optimal Control Problems Using PFASST N2 - In gradient-based methods for parabolic optimal control problems, it is necessary to solve both the state equation and a backward-in-time adjoint equation in each iteration of the optimization method. In order to facilitate fully parallel gradient-type and nonlinear conjugate gradient methods for the solution of such optimal control problems, we discuss the application of the parallel-in-time method PFASST to adjoint gradient computation. In addition to enabling time parallelism, PFASST provides high flexibility for handling nonlinear equations, as well as potential extra computational savings from reusing previous solutions in the optimization loop. The approach is demonstrated here for a model reaction-diffusion optimal control problem.

Hybrid parareal schemes interleaving the parallel in time iteration with an iterative solution of the individual time steps are among the most efficient methods for general nonlinear problems. Despite the hiding of communication time behind computation, communication has in certain situations a significant impact on the total runtime. Here we present strict, yet no sharp, error bounds for hybrid parareal methods with inexact communication due to lossy data compression, and derive theoretical estimates of the impact of compression on parallel efficiency of the algorithms. These and some computational experiments suggest that compression is a viable method to make hybrid parareal schemes robust with respect to low bandwidth setups.

T1 - An Efficient Parallel-in-Time Method for Optimization with Parabolic PDEs N2 - To solve optimization problems with parabolic PDE constraints, often methods working on the reduced objective functional are used. They are computationally expensive due to the necessity of solving both the state equation and a backward-in-time adjoint equation to evaluate the reduced gradient in each iteration of the optimization method. In this study, we investigate the use of the parallel-in-time method PFASST in the setting of PDE constrained optimization. In order to develop an efficient fully time-parallel algorithm we discuss different options for applying PFASST to adjoint gradient computation, including the possibility of doing PFASST iterations on both the state and adjoint equations simultaneously. We also explore the additional gains in efficiency from reusing information from previous optimization iterations when solving each equation. Numerical results for both a linear and a non-linear reaction-diffusion optimal control problem demonstrate the parallel speedup and efficiency of different approaches.
