DOC-like row filters for table views in DO

Have the ability to create a set of filters on a table view that:a. As a set of filters that each can be added, edited and removed.b. Are persistent, i.e. do not disappear when switching views. c. Can be enabled/disabledd. Include logic like `cont...

Jupyter notebook as a DO dashboard page

Similar to using a notebook as a source for optimization code, allow the user to write a notebook that contains visualization components for a dashboard page.Ideally, have an ability per cell to hide the cell, the output or both from the dashboard...

OPL shall generate concert model with column API

OPL fails at building very large scale models due to the fact that it uses a "row api" of concert : Variables are created and added then to the range constraints. Unfortunately, such API can become dramatically slow for very large models, and bui...

Have DO for DSX not only in DSXL but also in Watson Studio

DO for DSX help DSXL customers deploy optimization. With Watson Studio we have less flexibility to do that. We should have that available to ease adoption of Decision Optimization by Watson Studio customers

Support user-defined Python module

I would like to maintain a set of Python functions and classes in a separate model/script, then do an import from that module in a notebook and DO4DSX model.Use cases:* I want to move complex function definitions out of my notebook. The functions ...

Property Management Optimization => TriRiga+DO

TriRiga is IBM solution for property management. A client, major corporation, has multiple buildings. How to optimize useage of these facilities given number of buildings, work-force size, cost, ownership status, owning organization, etc. More on ...

Scenario Migration tool

A good step to help DOC users migrate to DODS would be a simple Scenario migration tool that would extract scenario data from DOC and import into DODS. An option to also "export DOC Scenario(s) as CSV" could help administrators import the DOC data...

Nonlinear solver for CPLEX

Add nonlinear optimization capability to CPLEX. Many real-life models are nonlinear by nature. CPLEX solver requires a linear model to work. A good nonlinear solver can often times overperform a linearized form of a real-life model. Having a nonli...

Add DOcplexCloud in the WDP Admin Console/ compute service

In the WDP admin console you don't have the DOcplexCloud servcie that appears. It is one of the compute service provided by IBM for Analytics
