| I'm sorry that I can't help on this one directly. I don't work on
LP.
If I were you, I would try contacting one of the OpenVMS centres
that Digital has, where they do benchmarking. For instance, the Systems
Integration centre at Valbonne might be able to help out. I don't know
where the Asia Pacific equivalent is. [You're in Sydney, yes?]
The alternative would be to approach one of the accounts that might
be using LP heavily. The oil industry is the place that I would start.
The third suggestion is to look through lists of ISVs supporting
Open VMS. There must be some outfit producing mathematical software of
the kind that you're looking for.
Sorry again that I can't be more specific.
Cheers,
Andrew.

| also no direct help, but some pointers.
try the decus library. i think there are some LP programs there.
i have no idea how good or bad they are.
also try COSMOS. i'm not sure of the spelling.
it is a u.s. depository of software developed for various
govt agencies. it is in GA, perhaps at one of the big forts or U of Ga.
i think they had an assortment of optimization packages.
the software tools clearing house has pointers to other collections
of software. some of them might have what you need.
the vax software source book lists a couple, including IMSL which
was mentioned in a previous note. my copy is about 12 years old,
so i'll skip the contact info unless you ask for it.
i understand IMSL is highly regarded in the numerical analysis community for
the quality of their routines.
