The Mixed Integer Linear Programming Solver

You can run the branch-and-cut algorithm only in single-machine mode. In single-machine mode, the computation is executed by multiple threads on a single computer.

You can run the decomposition algorithm in either single-machine or distributed mode. In distributed mode, the computation is executed on multiple computing nodes in a distributed computing environment.

Note: Distributed mode requires SAS High-Performance Optimization.

You can specify options that control parallel processing in the PERFORMANCE statement, which is documented in the section PERFORMANCE Statement in Chapter 4: Shared Concepts and Topics.
