NETSPEAK: An algebraic modelling language for nonconvex network optimization problems

NETSPEAK is an algebraic modelling language used to specify, solve, and analyze nonconvex (or linear) minimum cost network flow problems. A wide variety of network and network-related topologies can be modelled using NETSPEAK including pure networks, networks with side constraints and/or side variables, and generalized networks. Problems involving price based decomposition and integer valued variables can also be modelled using NETSPEAK. The language, which features flexible input/output, robust program control, and intuitive commands, is being developed as a Windows(TM) application.
