Release of the PriDec optimization solver
The salient features of v0.6.0 are
- the release of the primal decomposition (PriDec) solver for structured two-stage problems
- improved support for (NVIDIA) GPUs for solving sparse optimization problems via NVIDIA's cuSOLVER API and newly developed condensed optimization kernels.
Other notable capabilities include
- improved accuracy in the computations of the search directions via Krylov-based iterative refinement
- design of a matrix interface for sparse matrices in compressed sparse row format and (capable) CPU reference implementation
