Remarks LIPSOL is a primal-dual code, written mostly in Matlab, using the direct sparse Cholesky solver of Esmond Ng and Barry Peyton at Oak Ridge National Laboratory for solving large scale linear programming problems.
A comparison between LIPSOL and some other IP package for LP is given in Hans Mittelmann (mittelmann@asu.edu) benchmark:
