HiGHS is a high-performance open-source solver for large-scale sparse linear optimization problems, supporting linear programming (LP), convex quadratic programming (QP), and mixed integer programming (MIP). Written primarily in C++ with no third-party dependencies, it offers serial and parallel primal/dual simplex and interior point solvers, plus interfaces for Python, C, C#, and Fortran.
Use cases
- solve large-scale linear programming problems
- solve mixed integer programming models
- solve convex quadratic programming problems
- embed an LP/MIP solver in a C++ application
- solve optimization problems from Python via highspy
- run a high-performance simplex or interior point solver
When to choose
- you need a free, dependency-free LP/QP/MIP solver with high performance
- you want bindings for Python, C, C#, or Fortran
- you need serial or parallel simplex and interior point methods
- you want an MIT-licensed alternative to commercial solvers
When to avoid
- you need nonlinear (non-quadratic) optimization
- you need stochastic or conic optimization
- you require commercial-grade support guarantees
