This is the readme file of BPMPD, the LP/convex-QP solver developed by Cs. Meszaros. BPMPD is available at the moment for 32 bit Windows operating systems (Win2k/XP/NT) in executable and DLL forms for evaluation/research purposes. The binaries have no time/size limitations but reporting the optimal solution is disabled after a certain problem-size limit. The homepage of BPMPD is at: http://www.sztaki.hu/~meszaros/bpmpd. There papers and other informations may be downloaded. Comparisons for both LP and QP problems of BPMPD with other solvers are given at: http://plato.la.asu.edu/bench.html BPMPD-author: Cs.
