FAQPage Schema
How do I solve linear and mixed-integer programming problems in C using GPU acceleration?

You can solve linear programming and mixed-integer linear programming problems in C by using the cuOpt C API to build problems with CSR matrices, configure solver settings, and extract objective values via GPU acceleration.

What problem types does the cuOpt C API support for numerical optimization?

The cuOpt C API supports solving Linear Programming (LP), Mixed-Integer Linear Programming (MILP), and Quadratic Programming (QP) problems, accommodating both continuous and integer variables within your C/C++ applications.

How do I build and configure optimization problems with the cuOpt C API?

To build optimization problems, include cuopt/linear_programming/cuopt_c.h, manage problem data in CSR format, set variable bounds and types, configure solver settings, and then solve to read the objective value.

Can I embed GPU-accelerated optimization directly into my C or C++ application?

Yes, you can embed GPU-accelerated optimization directly into C or C++ applications by integrating the cuOpt C API, which is designed for embedded decision-making workloads like real-time scheduling and resource allocation.

What data format is required for setting variable bounds and problem matrices in cuOpt?

The cuOpt C API requires managing problem data in CSR (Compressed Sparse Row) format, which is used alongside setting variable bounds and types to properly construct the LP, MILP, or QP problem matrices.

What are the limitations of using the cuOpt C API for numerical optimization?

The cuOpt C API is limited to LP, MILP, and QP workflows, requiring problem data in CSR format and specific headers like cuopt/linear_programming/cuopt_c.h, which may constrain unsupported problem types or alternative matrix formats.
