LaGO (Lagrangian Global Optimizer) is a MINLP solver developed in the DFG-project "Optimization of a Complex Energy Conversion Plant".
Using the default parameter settings, LaGO is an implementation of a Branch-and-Cut solver for block-separable not necessarily convex MINLPs.
This algorithm is illustrated in the recent paper "LaGO - a (heuristic) Branch and Cut algorithm for nonconvex MINLPs"
and in the slides of the talk "LaGO - Branch and Cut for nonconvex block-separable MINLPs in the absence of algebraic formulations".
The current version of LaGO is still in a very early state.
Integer variables other than binaries (i.e., discrete variables which are not restricted to be 0 or 1) are not supported yet.
Nevertheless, testing LaGO on moderate size examples from the GAMS MINLP World shows that LaGO is able to find good solutions for many real-world problems (see the benchmarking results at the end of this page).
The development of LaGO continues in form of a new COIN-OR project. For latest news about LaGO, and information on how to obtain, install, and use the LaGO code, please refer to the webpage
