Abstract. A generic framework is postulated for utilizing the computational resources provided by a metacomputer to concurrently solve a large number of optimization problems generated by a modeling language. An example of the framework using the Condor resource manager and the AMPL and GAMS modeling languages is provided. A mixed integer programming formulation of a feature selection problem from machine learning is used to test the mechanism developed. Due to this application’s computational requirements, the ability to perform optimizations in parallel is necessary in order to obtain results within a reasonable amount of time. Details about the simple and easy to use tool and implementation are presented so that other modelers with applications generating many independent mathematical programs can take advantage of it to significantly reduce solution times.
