Do the limitations of CPLEX community version affect Heinz? Answer: Yes.

[CicoZhang]

The different versions of IBM ILOG CPLEX can be found here: https://www.ibm.com/products/ilog-cplex-optimization-studio/pricing. Compared to the academic version, community version has some limitations as follows (excerpted from the webpage).

1. Limited to 1000 variables and 1000 constraints, but models can be edited.
2. Time-limited trial without limits available upon request. Do these limitations affect Heinz? If yes, how significant is this effect? Thanks in advance.

The community version is on the left; the academic one is on the right.

Hi Cico,

Just try it out and let us know.

Best wishes, Gunnar

@guwek I will test it in a couple of days. Here is the compiled version using the community CPLEX 12.8: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1thsaZycQMeHHqcPedDNKVycnm_ub6WkU/view?usp=sharing

The limitation is very obvious. The community version has severely constrained the scale of the network to investigate regarding the number of the edges.
