1****************************************************************************** 2* DEVELOPING A CUSTOMIZED SOLVER USING CALLBACKS * 3****************************************************************************** 4 5To use SYMPHONY's callbacks to develop a customized solver, fill in the stub 6functions provided in the files in this directory, as described in the user's 7manual. Follow the instructions below to compile your application. 8 9DOCUMENTATION 10============= 11 12Full documentation comes with your distribution in the directory SYMPHONY/Doc 13and can also be downloaded at ftp://branchandcut.org/pub/reference/. There is 14a user's guide (latest version is SYMPHONY-5.1-Manual.pdf) that should be read 15prior to developing an application. 16 17****************************************************************************** 18* INSTALLATION * 19****************************************************************************** 20 21Please see the INSTALL file for a guide to compile SYMPHONY USER application. 22 23******************************************************************************* 24* SAMPLE APPLICATIONS * 25******************************************************************************* 26 27There are a number of sample applications available as examples of how to 28do development with SYMPHONY. These include solvers for the matching problem, 29the set partitioning problem (simple and advanced versions), the vehicle 30routing and traveling salesman problems, and the mixed postman problem. These 31applications are distributed as separate packages and can be downloaded from 32www.branchandcut.org. There is a white paper that guides the user through the 33development of the matching solver. 34 35AUTHORS 36 37SYMPHONY was jointly developed by Ted Ralphs (ted@lehigh.edu) and Laci 38Ladanyi (ladanyi@us.ibm.com). Menal Guzelsoy (megb@lehigh.edu) helped with 39development, documentation, and debugging of SYMPHONY 4.0 and 5.0. 40 41BUG REPORTS 42 43Please submit bug reports at https://projects.coin-or.org/SYMPHONY 44 45
