Problem type: MIP (medium)

Keywords: Parallel solver sessions, asynchronous, GMP, Threads

Description: This example demonstrates how asynchronous solver sessions can be used to solve multiple instances of the FlowShop problem in parallel. For each solver session you can specify the amount of threads to be used by the solver. That way you can, e.g., solve two instances in parallel by using two solver sessions whereby each solver session uses 4 threads.

Note: Multiple threads for MIP problems are only supported by CPLEX and Gurobi
