Mixed Integer Linear Programming for Optimal Scheduling of an energy System

[SR89]

Hello,

in our lab we have an energy system which is made of thermal and electrical energy producing units. In our simulations (Matlab+Cplex), we were able to determine the optimal production schedule in dependency of a determined weather forecast and consumer behavior. These calculations are equivalent to a common unit commitment problem, which is generally solved with an mixed integer linear programming (milp) approach. I was wondering how this could be implemented on a Compact Rio/Lab view 2016 system. Are there existing functions, which can solve milp-optimization problems?

I'm pretty sure the answer is "No".  LabVIEW = Laboratory Virtual Instrument Engineering Workbench, and this type of problem does not really fall in the Engineering or "Instrument" sphere.  It doesn't mean you can't "do the math" and write a series of VI, yourself, to do this ...
