 To add a custom plugin to a SCIP `Model` instance, you should implement its trait and call the corresponding `include_{PLUGIN_NAME}` method. For examples on implementing the specific plugin trait you can check the tests in the corresponding files.

 ## About SCIP
 
 SCIP is currently one of the fastest non-commercial solvers for mixed integer programming (MIP) and mixed integer nonlinear programming (MINLP). It is also a framework for constraint integer programming and branch-cut-and-price. It allows for total control of the solution process and the access of detailed information down to the guts of the solver.
