Hello. I want to cite or-tools in my thesis and I haven't found any information on the subject yet. Thanks!

@orwant Can you confirm it ?

5/22/15 We don't have any well-planned answer, but how about this: "Google's or-tools vehicle routing library, https://github.com/google/or-tools." Cheers, Jon

AFAIK the "official" name should be instead: Google's OR-Tools, https://developers.google.com/optimization/ notice: capital OR and T and prefer to point/cite the optimization site than github directly

About OR-Tools OR-Tools is an open source software suite for optimization, tuned for tackling the world's toughest problems in vehicle routing, flows, integer and linear programming, and constraint programming.

src: https://developers.google.com/optimization/ EDIT: also live here https://opensource.google.com/projects/or-tools (ed "OR-Tools is Google’s software suite for combinatorial optimization")

Thanks

How about this in BibTex? The generated pdf looks like this Plain text: Google’s OR-Tools[EB/OL]. . https://developers.google.com/optimization/.
