Basic embedding tasks

Description
  • ugcomp.py: Compiling a model into a BIM file (requires burglar2.mos, burglar.dat)
  • ugarray.py: Accessing modeling objects: sparse arrays (requires transportp.mos, transprt.dat)
  • ugcb.py: Retrieve model output via a callback (requires burglar2.mos, burglar.dat)
  • ugparam.py: Passing parameters to a Mosel model (requires prime.mos)
  • ugsol.py: Accessing modeling objects and solution information (requires burglar3p.mos, burglar.dat)
Difficulty rating: 2 (easy-medium)

model Burglar3p

  WTMAX = 102                    ! Maximum weight allowed
  ITEMS = {"camera", "necklace", "vase", "picture", "tv", "video",

  VALUE: array(ITEMS) of real    ! Value of items
  WEIGHT: array(ITEMS) of real   ! Weight of items

  soltake: array(ITEMS) of real  ! Solution values
 end-declarations

 initializations from 'burglar.dat'
  VALUE  WEIGHT
 end-initializations

! Objective: maximize total value
 MaxVal:= sum(i in ITEMS) VALUE(i)*take(i)

! Weight restriction
 sum(i in ITEMS) WEIGHT(i)*take(i) <= WTMAX

! All variables are 0/1
 forall(i in ITEMS) take(i) is_binary

 maximize(MaxVal)                  ! Solve the MIP-problem

! Store solution values for retrieval
 forall(i in ITEMS) soltake(i):= getsol(take(i))

end-model
