Comparing MIQCP Solvers to a Specialised Algorithm for Mine Production Scheduling [PDF]
, 2012 This paper investigates the performance of several out-of-the-box solvers for mixed-integer quadratically constrained programmes (MIQCPs) on an open pit mine production scheduling problem with mixing constraints. We compare the solvers BARON, Couenne, SBB, and SCIP to a problem-specific algorithm on two different MIQCP formulations.

A novel MIQCP method for FACTS allocation in complex real-world grids
International Journal of Electrical Power & Energy Systems, 2014 Abstract This paper presents a novel Flexible AC Transmission Systems (FACTS) placement method based on mixed integer quadratically constrained programming (MIQCP). The method is capable of allocating both Static VAR Compensator (SVC) and Thyristor-Controlled Series Capacitor (TCSC) either separately or simultaneously, to determine concurrently their
