Bring MATLAB interface back for CPLEX

Please bring back the MATLAB interface for CPLEX. We rely heavily on this feature since toolboxes we use are Matlab exclusive.

Ability to disable job requeuing in google resource connector when jobs exit with TERM_RC_RECLAIM

We have jobs that should not be requeued after partially running due to corrupting the job output data. We would like to have a queue level parameter to disable requeuing of jobs that exit for TERM_RC_RECLAIM. To be consistent with other features,...

Add support for .NET 6 and Linux OS in CPLEX APIs

We developed a product based on .NET 6 that relies on CPLEX core functionalities and we need to make it run both on Windows an Linux operating systems. The .NET 6 libraries are platform independent but the CPLEX Optimization Studio only provides a...

OPL model generation with multithreating

the OPL model generation uses only 1 core and it takes time.with a pre analysis of the model it could be possible to parallelize some of the model generation.

OPL interface for Matlab

Would be great to have not only a Matlab interface to CPLEX, but to OPL as well. It would facilitate. model deisgn (.mod) using OPL (way easier than working directly with CPLEX. model modification, re-run, post/pre-processing computations using a ...

Feasibility to kill the jobs if they are submitted directly in the remote cluster for multi cluster scenario

We can see remote cluster jobs with "bjobs -m <clustername> ..." from another cluster that is a member of MC, no matter the jobs are forwarded to remote cluster or submitted directly in the remote cluster, but we cannot kill the jobs if they...
