* src/glpk.h, src/glpapi06.c New smcp parameters were added (not documented yet): int excl (default: GLP_ON) Internal simplex solver option: GLP_ON - exclude fixed non-basic variables from the working LP; GLP_OFF - keep original variables in the working LP. int shift (default: GLP_ON) Internal simplex solver option: GLP_ON - shift bounds of variables in the working LP tow. zero; GLP_OFF - keep original bounds of variables in the working LP. int aorn (default: GLP_USE_NT) Internal simplex solver option: GLP_USE_AT - use A matrix in sparse row-wise format; GLP_USE_NT - use N matrix in sparse row-wise format. Parameter out_frq was changed to specify the output frequency in milliseconds rather than in simplex iterations.
src/env/time.c The Posix version of glp_time was replaced by new one, which doesn't use gmtime functions to improve portability. Thanks to Rob Schroeder <Rob.Schroeder@graphicpkg.com> for bug report.
src/spv.c, src/spv.h These files were moved to src/cglib/, since they are used only in the MIR cuts generator.

* src/bflib/sgf.c A serious bug was fixed in a basis factorization routine used on the dense phase. (The bug might appear only if the number of rows exceeded sqrt(2**31) ~= 46,340 and caused access violtaion exception because of integer overflow.) Thanks to Mark Meketon <Marc.Meketon@oliverwyman.com> for bug report.
* doc/glpk.tex Two API routines glp_alloc and glp_realloc were documented. Thanks to Brian Gladman <brg@gladman.plus.com> for suggestion.

* src/glprlx.c A serious bug was *tentatively* fixed. This bug is inherited from the original Fortran version of the RELAX-IV code. Unfortunately, the code is very intricate, so this bug is still under investigation. Thanks to Sylvain Fournier for bug report.
RELAX-IV bug details -------------------- In the original RELAX-IV code there are four similar fragments in subroutines ascnt1 and ascnt2 like this:
C C DECREASE THE PRICES OF THE SCANNED NODES BY DELPRC. C ADJUST FLOW TO MAINTAIN COMPLEMENTARY SLACKNESS WITH C THE PRICES. C NB = 0 DO 6 I=1,NSAVE . . . IF (RC(ARC).EQ.0) THEN DELX=DELX+U(ARC) NB = NB + 1 PRDCSR(NB) = ARC END IF . . .
On some instances the variable NB becomes greater than N (the number of nodes) that leads to indexing error, because the array PRDCSR is declared as array of N elements (more precisely, as array of MAXNN elements, however, NB becomes even much greater than MAXNN).

* GLPK 4.32 (17:0:17) has been released
* glpmpl01.c A bug was fixed. Due to this bug iterated expressions having an indexing expression whose dummy indices are bound to some values, i.e. like sum{(i+1,j,k-1) in E} x[i,j,k] are evaluated incorrectly. Namely, current value of such expressions is not invalidated when corresponding dummy indices (like i and k in the example above) are changed, that erroneously results in the same value evaluated for the first time.
* glpios03.c Euclidean reduction of the local objective bound was added in the routine glpios03.c.
* glpapi11.c The following new branch-and-cut API routines were added: glp_ios_row_attr determine additional row attributes; glp_ios_pool_size determine current size of the cut pool; glp_ios_add_row add constraint to the cut pool; glp_ios_del_row delete constraint from the cut pool; glp_ios_clear_pool delete all constraints from the cut pool.
* glpapi08.c The following new features were included in the branch-and-cut solver (the API routine glp_intopt): MIP presolver; mixed cover cut generator; clique cut generator. Due to the MIP presolver glp_intopt may additionally return GLP_ENOPFS and GLP_ENODFS, if primal or dual infeasibility of LP relaxation is detected by the presolver. Also the return code GLP_EMIPGAP was introduced to correctly indicate that the mip gap tolerance is reached.
* glplpx01.c Now the obsolete API routines lpx_integer and lpx_intopt are completely superseded by the API routine glp_intopt that makes them deprecated.
* glpmpl05.c Now the table driver name "iODBC" can be specified as "ODBC".

Mon Feb 05 08:00:00 2007 Andrew Makhorin <mao@mai2.rcnet.ru>
* GLPK 4.14 has been released Now GLPK conforms to ILP32, LLP64, and LP64 programming models (the latter seems to be the ultimate choice regarding 64-bit architectures). Note that GLPK itself is a 32-bit application, and the conformity only means that the package works correctly on all these arenae. Nevertheless, on 64-bit platforms it is possible to use more than 4GB of memory, if necessary.
* Makefile Starting from this release only the header glpk.h is needed to be installed.
* glplib01.c Two routines bigmul and bigdiv which performs multiplication and division of unsigned integers of arbitrary precision were added.
* glplib02.c A set of 64-bit arithmetic routines were added.
* glplib04.c Some low-level library routines were improved and renamed.
* glpcfg.h The macro GLP_TM_SPEC were introduced to specify a version of the time routine depending on the host environment.

* GLPK 4.12 has been released
* glpcfg.h The package configuration file was added.
* glplib2.c Alternative version of the routines umalloc, ucalloc, and ufree was provided. It does not limit the amount of allocated memory to INT_MAX bytes and therefore can be used on platforms where sizeof(void *) > sizeof(int). To enable this version one should define the preprocessor variable GLP_HUGE_MEM.
* glprng.c The routine rng_create_rand was changed to initialize the generator using seed = 1, not 0, to conform ISO C requirements.
* glpgmp.h, glpgmp.c A set of bignum arithmetic routines implementing operations on integers and rationals was added. These routines are compatible with the GNU MP library.
NOTE: To attain a much better performance it is recommended to use, if possible, the original GNU MP library rather than the GLPK version, by defining the preprocessor variable GLP_USE_GMP.
* glplux.h, glplux.c A tentative implementation of sparse LU-factorization based on exact (bignum) arithmetic was added.
* glpssx.h, glpssx.c A tentative implementation of some simplex method routines based on exact (bignum) arithmetic was added.

* glplib2.c Now if the preprocessor variable GLPHUGEMEM is defined, other version of the routines umalloc, ucalloc, and ufree is used on compiling the package. This allows avoiding memory allocation problems on platforms where sizeof(void *) > sizeof(int), for example, where addresses are 64-bit while integers are 32-bit. The modification was made due to a bug report provided by Karel Zimmermann <kzimm@diamant.jouy.inra.fr> and Christophe Caron <caron@diamant.jouy.inra.fr>.
Sat Jan 17 12:00:00 2004 Andrew Makhorin <mao@mai2.rcnet.ru>

Fri Nov 14 12:00:00 2003 Andrew Makhorin <mao@mai2.rcnet.ru>
* GLPK 4.2 has been released.
* glpiet.h, glpiet.c, glpios.h, glpios1.c, glpios2.c, glpios3.c A preliminary implementation of the Integer Optimization Suite (IOS) was included in the package. Eventually IOS will replace the Implicit Enumeration Suite (IES).
* glplpx.h, glplpx6d.c A dummy version of the integer optimization routine lpx_intopt was included in the package. Later this routine will replace the routine lpx_integer.
* examples/glpsol.c A new command-line option --int-opt was added to the solver to call lpx_intopt rather than lpx_integer.
* glpbcs.h, glpbcs1.c, glpbcs2.c Being replaced by IOS routines (see above) the Branch-and-Cut Framework (BCS) routines were removed from the package.
* examples/tspsol.c Stand-alone Symmetric TSP solver was completely re-programmed using IOS routines.
* glplib.h, glplib2.c, glplib4.c The random-number generator was implemented. It is based on the module GB_FLIB from the Stanford GraphBase originally developed by Donald Knuth.
* glphbsm.c, glplpx8a.c, glpmps.c All calls to fopen/fclose were replaced by corresponding calls to ufopen/ufclose due to bug reports provided by Morten Welinder <terra@gnu.org> and <jpark@sfwmd.gov>.
* glpmps.c The code was made re-entrant.
* glplpx8b.c API routine lpx_print_sens_bnds for bounds sensitivity analysis contributed by Brady Hunsaker <hunsaker@engr.pitt.edu> was added to the package. This feature is also available in glpsol via the command-line option --bounds.
* contrib/jni/*.* New version of GLPK JNI (Java Native Interface) contributed by Chris Rosebrugh <cpr@pobox.com> was added to the package.
* contrib/deli/*.* GLPK DELI (Delphi Interface) contributed by Ivo van Baren <i.van.baren@freeler.nl> was added to the package.
* glplpx3.c Default method to scale the problem was changed to equilibration scaling (lp->scale = 1 in lpx_reset_parms).
* glplpx6a.c Two minor (non-critical) typos were fixed due to report provided by Andrew Hamilton-Wright <andrewhw@ieee.org>.
* glplpp2.c An untested case (line 941) had been tested due to bug report provided by Jiri Spitz <jiri.spitz@telecom.cz>.
* w32bc5.mak, w32vc6.mak, w32vc6d.mak, d32dmc.mak Several makefiles were added to allow building GLPK library for some non-GNU 32-bit platforms.
Sat Aug 23 12:00:00 2003 Andrew Makhorin <mao@mai2.rcnet.ru>
* GLPK 4.1 has been released.
* glpmpl1.c, glpmpl3.c Some bugs were fixed in the MathProg translator due to the bug reports provided by Giles Thompson <gwpt1@cus.cam.ac.uk>: conditional set expressions were incorrectly parsed; dimen attribute was not set by default when a set was used recursively in its own declaration; logical expressions ... in if ... then ... else ... did not work; displaying set expressions did not free memory allocated for temporary results.
* glpmpl3.c (reduce_terms) Implementation of summation of linear forms over domain was improved to reduce complexity of that operation from O(n*n) to O(n*log n). The improvement was made due to a report provided by Sebastien de Menten <sdementen@hotmail.com>.
* glplpx6a.c (line 1056), glpmip1.c (line 641) Two minor bugs were fixed due to the bug report provided by Kendall Demaree <kendal.demaree@verizon.net>.
* glplpx.h, glplpx6a.c The method of one artificial variable implemented in the routine lpx_prim_art and used on the phase I in the glpk simplex solver has a serious defect: for some lp instances it erroneously reports that the problem has no primal feasible solution. This error appears when the column of the artificial variable, which enters the basis to make it primal feasible, has large constraint coefficients, that leads to small reduced costs of non-basic variables and premature termination of the search, i.e. to wrong conclusion that the problem has no primal feasible solution. To avoid this defect the routine lpx_prim_feas was included. It implements the method of implicit artifical variables (based on minimization of the sum of infeasibilities), which is a bit slower but much more robust. The routine lpx_prim_feas having the same functionality now is used instead the routine lpx_prim_art.
* glpinv.h, glpinv.c The test used in the routine inv_update to detect low accuracy after updating LU-factorization of the basis matrix was replaced by a new, more robust test.
* glplpx6c.c Selecting an active node to be solved next in the routine btrack_bestp was changed. Now, if any integer feasible solution has not been found yet, the routine chooses an active node which has the minimal sum of integer infeasibilities.
* glpmip.h, glpmip1.c The additional flag int_obj was included in the structure MIPTREE used by the branch-and-bound. This flag is set in the routine mip_create_tree and used in the routine is_better. It means that the objective is integral, i.e. depends only on integer variables with integer objective coefficients. The test used in the routine check_integrality was also replaced by a new, more reasonable one.
* glplpx1.c A minor bug was fixed in the routine lpx_check_name.
* glpmpl.h, glpmpl4.c, glplpx8d.c The flag skip_data was added to the parameter list of the routine mpl_read_model. If this flag is set, the data section in the model file is ignored. Corresponding change was made in the routine lpx_read_model. Now, if both model and data files are specified, the data section in the model file is ignored.
* glplpx8c.c A minor bug (wrong format used for writing free columns) in the routine lpx_write_lpt was fixed due to the bug report provided by Bernhard Schmidt <schmidt@math.uni-augsburg.de>
* sample/glpsol.c The command-line parameter --tmlim, which allows limiting the solution time, was added.
* doc/lang.*, doc/refman.* New edition of the GLPK documentation was included.
* java-binding/*.* New version of the GLPK JNI (Java Native Interface) package was included in the distribution.
* sample/lpglpk40.c A non-trivial example was added. It allows using GLPK as a base LP solver for Concorde, a program for solving Traveling Salesman Problem (TSP). For details see comments in lpglpk40.c.
* sample/*.mod Some examples of LP and MIP models written in GNU MathProg were added.
Tue May 06 12:00:00 2003 Andrew Makhorin <mao@mai2.rcnet.ru>
* GLPK 4.0 has been released.
* glpmpl.h, glpmpl1.c, glpmpl2.c, glpmpl3.c, glpmpl4.c The model translator for the GNU MathProg modeling language was implemented and included in the package.
* glplpx.h, glplpx8d.c The api routine lpx_read_model, which is an interface to the MathProg translator, was included in the package.
* glplpx.h, glplpx8a.c The api routine lpx_print_prob for writing LP/MIP problem data in plain text format was included in the package.
* sample/glpsol.c New version of the GLPK stand-alone LP/MIP solver that supports the GNU MathProg modeling language was implemented.
* doc/lang.latex, doc/lang.dvi, doc/lang.ps The document "GLPK: Modeling Language GNU MathProg" was included in the package.
* doc/refman.latex, doc/refman.dvi, doc/refman.ps New edition of the GLPK Reference Manual was included in the package.
* glplpx8c.c A bug in the api routine lpx_write_lpt was fixed. Due to that bug an addressing error occured in the routine if the objective function has the non-zero constant term.
* glplan.h, glplan1.c, glplan2.c, glplan3.c, glplan4.c, * glplan5.c, glplan6.c, glplan7.c, glplan8.c, glplpx8b.c All modules of the translator for the GLPK/L modeling language were removed from the package, because GLPK/L being completely superseded by GNU MathProg is no more supported.
Tue Mar 25 12:00:00 2003 Andrew Makhorin <mao@mai2.rcnet.ru>
* GLPK 3.3 has been released.
* glplpp.h, glplpp1.c, glplpp2.c An implementation of the built-in LP presolver was added to the package.
* glplpx.h The flag presol was added to the structure LPX. This flag tells the lpx_simplex whether the built-in LP presolver should be used or not. By default this flag is off. Also three macros (namely LPX_E_NOPFS, LPX_E_NODFS, and LPX_K_PRESOL) that concern using the LP presolver were introduced.
* glplpx3.c, glplpx6a.c These modules was changed to use the built-in LP presolver.
* sample/glpsol.c Command line options --presol and --nopresol that concern using the LP presolver were added to the stand-alone LP/MIP solver.
* glplan1.c This module was changed to allow declaring sets like A[1:10] in the models written in the GLPK/L modeling language.
* doc/refman.latex, doc/lang.latex New editions of the documents "GLPK User's Guide" and "GLPK/L Modeling Language" were included in the distribution.
* java-binding/*.* The package GLPK JNI (Java Native Interface) implementing Java binding for GLPK was included in the distribution. This package was developed and programmed by Yuri Victorovich <yuri@gjt.org>.
Tue Feb 18 12:00:00 2003 Andrew Makhorin <mao@mai2.rcnet.ru>
* GLPK 3.2.4 has been released.
* glplpx6b.c The code was changed to allow auxiliary variables have non-zero objective coefficients.
Also a minor bug was fixed (the constant term was not considered on displaying the objective function value).
* sample/glpsol.c The code was changed to fix a bug (the command-line option 'bfs' was not recognized). The bug was fixed due to report provided by Olivier <odwl@skynet.be>.
* glplpt.c The code was changed to fix a bug (binary variables were treated erroneously as integer ones).
* glplpx6b.c The code was changed to fix a bug (variables that have no lower bounds were incorrectly processed on converting to the standard formulation). The bug was fixed due to report kindly provided by Kjell Eikland <kjell.eikland@broadpark.no>.
Mon Nov 11 12:00:00 2002 Andrew Makhorin <mao@mai2.rcnet.ru>
* GLPK 3.2.3 has been released.
* glpmip.h, glpmip1.c A preliminary implementation of the branch-and-bound driver based on the implicit enumeration suite (glpies) was added to the package. This module is not documented yet.
* glplpx6c.c A new implementation of the api routine lpx_integer which now is based on the b&b driver (see glpmip above) was included in the package. This new implementation has exactly the same functionality as the old version and therefore all changes are transparent to the api user.
* glpbbm.h, glpbbm.c * glprsm.h, glprsm1.c, glprsm2.c * glplp.h, glplp.c These modules were removed from the package, because they were used only in the old version of the routine lpx_integer, which was replaced by the new version (see glplpx6c above).
* glplpx.h, glplpx6a.c The api routine lpx_check_kkt was included in the package and its description was added in the reference manual. This routine allows checking Karush-Kuhn-Tucker optimality conditions for an LP solution.
* glplpx.h, glplpx8a.c Now the api routine lpx_print_sol also prints information about "solution quality" obtained via the api routine lpx_check_kkt.
* glplpx.h, glplpx8a.c New api routines lpx_read_bas and lpx_write_bas were included in the package and documented. The routine lpx_write_bas allows writing a current basis from an LP object to a text file in the MPS format. The routine lpx_read_bas allows reading a basis prepared in the MPS format from a text file into an LP object.
* glplpt.c The parsing routine which reads LP problem data prepared in the CPLEX LP format was modified to allow specifying lower bounds of variables also in the form 'variable >= lower bound' (in the bounds section). This modification was made due to a notice provided by Ivan Luzzi <iluzzi@libero.it>.
* glplpx.h, glplpx8c.c The api routine lpx_write_lpt which allows writing LP problem data from an LP object to a text file using the CPLEX LP format was included in the package and documented.
* glplpx.h, glplpx3.c The control parameter LPX_K_LPTORIG that affects the behavior of the api routine lpx_write_lpt was introduced.
* glplan6.c The semantics of the language GLPK/L was changed to allow selection in case when not all mute letters of a predicate (the operand that follows the keyword 'where') are presented in a parameter (the operand that precedes the keyword 'where'), i.e. to allow writing something like this: y[j] := sum(i, x[i] where p[i,j]); The paragraph "Selection" in the langauge description (page 25) was also correspondingly changed. This change of the language semantics was undertaken due to a notice provided by Peter Lee <plee@kinggee.com.au>.
* sample/hwd.lpm A nice example of LP model written in GLPK/L and contributed by Peter Lee <plee@kinggee.com.au> was included in the package.
* glplpx6b.c The api routine lpx_interior was modified: a) to compute dual values for all structural as well as auxiliary variables; b) to allow specifying non-zero objective coefficients at auxiliary variables.
* sample/glpsol.c Three new command-line options were added to the solver, which are: --plain, --orig, and --wrlpt.
Mon Oct 14 12:00:00 2002 Andrew Makhorin <mao@mai2.rcnet.ru>
* GLPK 3.2.2 has been released.
* glplpt.h, glplpt.c A module that reads LP/MIP problem data in CPLEX LP format was implemented.
* glplpx8c.c An api routine lpx_read_lpt that reads LP/MIP problem data in CPLEX LP format was implemented.
* sample/glpsol.c, sample/plan.lpt A new command-line option '--lpt' that allows reading LP/MIP problem data in CPLEX LP format was added to the solver.
* doc/refman.latex, doc/refman.dvi, doc/refman.ps A new edition of the Reference Manual was included.
* source/*.c Casting to (unsigned char) was added in some calls to the classification functions (isalpha, etc.). The bug was fixed due to report provided by Morten Welinder <terra@diku.dk>.
* glplpx8a.c The local routine mps_numb used in the routine lpx_write_mps was modified to correctly format floating-point numbers that have two digits in the decimal exponent. The bug was fixed due to report provided by Vlahos Kiriakos <Kiriakos.Vlahos@gs.com>.
* glplan.h, glplan1.c, ..., glplan8.c Several serious bugs were fixed in the language processor due to reports provided by <NORBERT.PIOTROWSKI@LHSYSTEMS.COM>: (a) a static search tree used to find sparse array elements was sometimes overwritten that caused the message 'assertion failed' to appear; the bug was fixed by creating separate search trees in parsing routines; (b) a variable declared using the predicate-controlled variable declaration statement had wrong order of domain sets, because the variable array was built as a copy of the predicate array; the bug was fixed by using the internal routine transpose that coordinates mute letters (and therefore domain sets) on copying sparse arrays; (c) sometimes assignment statements like x[#a,#b,#c] := ... was incorrectly processed; the bug was fixed by including an appropriate check into the internal routine assign_stmt.
* glp_simplex.c An additional check to see if all lower bounds are not greater than corresponding upper bounds was included in the routine to prevent wrong results to appear. Such incorrectness sometimes was not detected, namely, when variables with such bounds were non-basic and never entered the basis.
* glpspx1.c Maximal number of simplex iterations before reinversion was decreased from 100 to 50. This allowed to improve accuracy and, that is more important, to reduce the solution time for many serial lp problems approximately 1.5--2 times.
* glpspx2.c A check to see if all elements in the column chosen to enter the basis are close to zero in the routine spx_prim_chuzr was temporarily removed because this check gave wrong conclusion in case when the corresponding non-basic variable had zero column in the constraint matrix. An analogous check to see if all elements in the row chosen to leave the basis are close to zero in the routine spx_dual_chuzc was also temporarily removed on the same reason. The bug was fixed due to reports provided by Flavio Keidi Miyazawa <fkm@ic.unicamp.br> and Vlahos Kiriakos <Kiriakos.Vlahos@gs.com>.

* sample/glpsol.c The new implementation of the simplex method is now used by default. The old version is available via --old-sim option.
* glpmat/gm_scaling.c Now this routine displays only two lines: an initial "quality" and a final "quality".
* glplp/prepro_lp.c Identifiers 'fmin' and 'fmax' renamed to 'f_min' and 'f_max' in order to avoid conflict with <math.h>. The bug was fixed due to report provided by Sami Farin <sfarin@ratol.fi>.

These routines, which are based on so called FHV-factorization (a variety of LU-factorization) and Gustavson's data structures, perform the main operations on the basis matrix faster at the expense of some worsening numerical accuracy.
* glprsm.h, glprsm/afi.c The routines, which implement AFI (Advanced Form of the Inverse) based on FHV-factorization, were added to the package. This new form is available via the parameter form = 3 (on API level) or via the option --afi (in GLPSOL solver).
* EFI was renamed to PFI In order to correct terminology the acronym EFI (Elimination Form of the Inverse) was replaced by PFI (Product Form of the Inverse) everywhere in the source code and the documentation.
* glpset/umalloc.c, glpset/ucalloc.c * glpset/get_atom.c, glpset/get_atomv.c These memory management routines were changed in order *not* to clear allocated memory blocks by binary zeros.
