.BestBound

Definition

The .BestBound suffix contains the current best bound during the branch-and-bound solution process of MIP, MIQP and MIQCP problems.

Datatype

The value of the .BestBound suffix is numeric.

Note

  • The .BestBound suffix also contains the current best bound during a solve with BARON.

  • The .BestBound suffix also contains the current best bound during the solve of a nonconvex QP problem with CPLEX, if the CPLEX option Solution Target is set to ‘Search for global optimum’.

  • The .BestBound suffix suffix also contains the current best bound during the solve of a nonconvex QP or QCP problem with GUROBI, if the GUROBI option Nonconvex Strategy is set to ‘Translate’.

  • For multi-objective models, the .BestBound suffix refers to the (blended) objective with the highest priority.

  • The .BestBound suffix is also mentioned in Table Suffices of a mathematical program filled by the solver of the Language Reference.
