Downloading the
CPLEX 8.0 Student Edition
for AMPL

For current AMPL users




Current AMPL users can now download an AMPLstudent edition of the new version 8.0 of CPLEX. Like other AMPLstudent editions, this AMPL/CPLEX is full-featured but limited to 300variables and 300 objectives plus constraints. It includes the CPLEXcomponents that solve
  • linear and convex quadratic programs by simplex methods
  • linear and convex quadratic programs by interior-point methods
  • linear and convex quadratic integer programs by a branch-and-boundprocedure
If you are a current user of standard (command-line)AMPL, follow our CPLEX 8.0 downloadinstructions below. You may want to also get the latest AMPLversion by following our AMPL downloadinstructions, but this is not necessary.

If you are a Windows user new to AMPL, take a look at our quick start instructions given below. You can get theStudent Editions of both standard AMPL and CPLEX 8.0 by downloading andunpacking a single zip archive file.

If you are a Unix or Linux user new to AMPL, consult our Unix download instructions to obtain anappropriate copy of the AMPL Student Edition. Then download CPLEX 8.0 by following the instructionshere.

If you are an AMPL Plus user orneed a size-unrestricted version of CPLEX, see our notes on obtainingother AMPL/CPLEX versions.

Downloading the CPLEX 8.0 Student Edition
for current users of command-line AMPL

The CPLEX 8.0 studentedition for AMPL is available for download for the followingplatforms:
  • DEC(Compaq) Alpha workstations running OSF/1 v2.0
  • IBM PowerPCworkstations running AIX
  • Intel (Pentium-compatible) PCs running Windowsor Linux
  • SiliconGraphics workstations running IRIX 5.x or 6.x
  • SunMicrosystems SPARC-based workstations running Solaris 2.5.1 (SunOS5.5.1) or later

To install, click on the appropriate link above, and then proceed as follows:

  • For Windows, you will obtain the zip archive file cplex.zip. If your web browser doesn't automatically unpack this archive,double-click on the cplex.zip file icon to unpack it. Theunpacking procedure should produce two executable files, cplex.exe and cplex80.dll, which are both required to run the CPLEX 8.0 solver. (If you can't get thearchive to unpack, your computer lacks a properly configuredzip-file utility. You can download a program such as UnZip, WinZip, or StuffitExpander to unpack zip files.)
  • For Unix/Linux, you will obtain the compressed tar archivefile cplex.tgz. Decompress bygzip to create an archive named cplex.tar, thenunpack this archive by use of the command tarxvfcplex.tar to obtain the file cplex.
Place the CPLEX executable file or files in the same folder ordirectory as your AMPL executable, or anywhere in your search path. Itwill then be accessible from AMPL by giving an AMPL command of the formoptionsolvercplex beforesolve.

A license agreement for CPLEX 8.0 appears in a file that is alsounpacked by the above procedures. For detailed instructions on usingCPLEX from AMPL, including a complete listing of CPLEX options anddirectives, consult the ILOGAMPL CPLEX System Version 8.0 User's Guide.

Downloading the CPLEX 8.0 Student Edition
for Windows users new to AMPL

For a quick start if you haven't yet acquired either AMPL or CPLEX, start by downloadingchapter 1 of the AMPLbook. Then download the command-line AMPL zip archive file:If your web browser doesn't automatically unpack this archive,double-click on the amplcml.zip file icon to unpack it.(If you can't get the archive to unpack, your computer lacks aproperly configured zip-file utility. You can download a programsuch as UnZip, WinZip, or StuffitExpander to unpack zip files.)

The unpacking procedure should create a folder named amplcmlcontaining the standard AMPL program (ampl.exe), the scrolling-window utility(sw.exe), and an executables for CPLEX 8.0 (cplex.exeand cplex80.dll). You may move and rename theamplcml folder to whatever is convenient for you. (Also inthis folder you will find files for the Kestrel internet optimizationclient and the AMPL database handlerfor Windows, which you may choose to investigate.)

To run AMPL and CPLEX using these files, double-click onsw.exe, and in the window that appears, type ampl toload the AMPL program. At this point the window should show thefollowing,

and you can proceed to enter commands at the 'ampl:' promptsas shown in the AMPL book. To select CPLEX as your solver, enter thecommand optionsolvercplex; before the firstsolve of your AMPL session. Finally, to get test problems andsample models from the AMPL book and elsewhere, consult our AMPL examples page.

Other AMPL/CPLEX versions

A student edition of CPLEX 6.5.3 was part of the the AMPL Plus Student Edition 1.6, includedon CD with copies of the AMPL book fromearly 2000 onward. AMPL Plus is not currently being maintained,however, and its CPLEX-based license will expire on January 1, 2003.Thus AMPL Plus users will need to switch to analternative AMPL version before the end of 2002.Currently it is possible to download any of several the experimental GUIs, as well as the standard AMPL based on a command-lineinterface. New GUIs for AMPL are under consideration and will beannounced as they become available.

Unrestricted versions of AMPL with CPLEX areavailable from ILOG, Inc. Further information may be obtained bysubmitting ILOG's WebInformation Request Form, writing to info@ilog.com, or calling +1800-FOR-ILOG (+1 800-367-4564) or +1 775-831-7744.

AMPL Quick Starts

To start learning about AMPL right now, download chapter 1 of the AMPLbook, then proceed in any of the following ways to access the AMPLsoftware and solvers:

1(from any web browser) Go to the Try AMPL! page, where you can sendmodels, data, and commands to a remote version of the AMPL StudentEdition and a selection of solvers. A simple web interface lets youchoose examples from the book and then experiment with changes in aseries of runs.

2(for Windows users) Download the AMPL StudentEdition zip archive file, amplcml.zip. Then follow the instructions below to unpack and run the AMPLprogram, the CPLEX 11.2, Gurobi 2.0, and MINOS 5.5 solvers, and the Kestrel client for free accessto additional solvers over the Internet. Once AMPL is running, you cantype commands just as they are shown in the AMPL book.

3(for Unix/Linux users) The AMPL Student Edition and compatible solvers are available for allof the popular Unix workstations, as well as for Linux and otherUnix-based operating systems on PCs.Consult the table in the instructions below todownload and set up the AMPL binary that is appropriate for yourplatform. Then visit our solver downloadinstructions to obtain one or more solvers for AMPL; Linux andSolaris users may alternatively download the Kestrel client to get access tosolvers over the Internet. Once AMPL is running, you can type commandsjust as they are shown in the AMPL book.

Want more? You can order the AMPL book to obtain anextensive introduction to the AMPL language. Files containing all ofthe book's examples, plus other AMPL models for many variedapplications, can be downloaded through our examples page.


Quick Start instructions for Windows

When you click to download amplcml.zip, your web browser shouldautomatically unpack this zip archive. If not, double-click onthe amplcml.zip file icon to unpack it. If you still can'tget the archive to unpack, your computer lacks a properly configuredzip-file utility; you can download a program such as UnZip, WinZip, or StuffitExpander to unpack zip files.

The unpacking procedure creates a folder named amplcmlcontaining the standard AMPL program (ampl.exe), the scrolling-window utility(sw.exe), executables for the solvers MINOS 5.5(minos.exe), CPLEX 11.2(cplex.exe and cplex112.dll), and Gurobi 2.0 (gurobi.exe and gurobi20.dll), and the Kestrel client(kestrel.exe) for free access to over a dozen more solvers viathe Internet. You may move and rename the amplcml folder towhatever is convenient for you.

To run AMPL using these files, double-click on sw.exe, and inthe window that appears, type ampl to load the AMPL program.At this point the window should show the following,

and you can proceed to enter commands at the 'ampl:' promptsas shown in the book. The default solver will be MINOS; enter thecommand optionsolvercplex to switch toCPLEX, or optionsolverkestrel to startusing the Kestrel client.

Quick Start instructions for Unix (including Linux and Mac OS X)

Download your AMPL executable by selecting the appropriatelink below:
  • DEC (Compaq) Alpha workstations running OSF/1 v2.0 or Linux
  • Hewlett-Packard9000 and compatible workstations running HP-UX
  • IBM RISCSystem/6000 and PowerPCworkstations running AIX
  • Intel (Pentium-compatible) PCs running Linux,FreeBSD, or Solaris
  • SiliconGraphics workstations running IRIX 5.x or 6.x
  • SunMicrosystems SPARC-based workstations running Solaris 2.5.1 (SunOS5.5.1) or later
The downloaded file must be decompressedby gzip to produce a file named ampl. This filemust be made executable, by a Unix command such as chmod+xampl, after which it may be executed from anydirectory in your search path.

To complete your AMPL installation, you can also download solvers to a directory in yoursearch path. To use a downloaded solver, set AMPL's solveroption to the name of the solver's executable file. For example, ifyou have downloaded cplex, enter the command optionsolvercplex before entering the solvecommand.

As an alternative or supplement to downloaded solvers, Linux andSolaris users can also download the Kestrel client to get access tosolvers over the Internet. Currently there are 15 Kestrel solversavailable for linear, integer, and nonlinear programming.
