The Arrow cluster and our 22 CPLEX licenses were funded under a CFI grant. This grant requires us to complete annual reports explaining how this infrastructure is being used. If you use the cluster or CPLEX licenses for a project, large or small, please enter a bullet item here that gives a short description of your project and the role the cluster played. If you used these resources for multiple projects and/or for a period of time that spans the time periods given here, please create multiple bullets. |

- Action Graph Games: Using the arrow cluster we carried out computational experiments evaluating the performance of our proposed algorithms for action graph games, which is a compact representation of game-theoretic models. (May 2006 - ongoing; Albert Xin Jiang and Kevin Leyton-Brown, CS)

- CS 540 project: obstacle navigation project which needed to solve a MILP problem to get the trajectory. Using CPLEX(and the cluster) allowed me to construct more interesting cases and get the solutions faster than the free solver GLPK. (April 2007, Alex Gukov, CS)
- TAC SCM: Used CPLEX's MILP solver to schedule production and deliveries for a SCM scenario (Sept 2006 - on going; Erik Zawadzki, CS)
- Exact regularization of convex programs: I used CPLEX (thanks, Kevin!) for the numerical results of a paper (see reference below). This paper gives the most general conditions possible under which a general convex program (eg, linear, quadratic, semidefinite, second-order cone, etc) can be regularized, and a solution of the original problem still be obtained.
