From what I've been told, MPSX outperforms the previous +package. In addition, it has available a feature of mixed integer +programming. + + Since MPSX is an IBM product, an installation which uses it is +charged a fixed rental fee per month. At the present time, CCN does +not have this processor with its system. We are anticipating asking +them to install it, with the mixed integer programming option. We +are looking for any other users from the Network who may need this +software in order to prorate the cost between several installations. +The initial estimate of the cost is $130/month, plus $225 for the +mixed integer programming feature. A share of this cost would be +assigned to each user of the system. I am told by Robert Bell of CCN +that they could take care of those details for us. + + If you have an interest in this, I urge you to contact me within +the month.
