Marion Technical Writer March 30, 2026

Hexaly is delighted to be the Platinum Sponsor of ISCO 2026, 9th International Symposium on Combinatorial Optimization. The event will take place from May 6 to 8, 2026, at the Korumar Ephesus Beach & Spa Resort, Kuşadası, Türkiye. You can access the conference program here.

Come visit the Hexaly booth and meet our Optimization Scientist, Théo Bordillon, who will be on-site throughout the day. He will be happy to connect if you have questions, want to learn more about our technology, or are curious about the latest features of Hexaly 14.5. This new version 14.5 brings major performance improvements in routing, scheduling, and packing, along with a significant boost in nonlinear optimization capabilities. It is also a great opportunity to discuss career opportunities at Hexaly in an informal setting. Below is the abstract of Hexaly’s talk at the 2026 INOC conference.

Hexaly, a new kind of global optimization solver, by Théo Bordillon, Optimization scientist

May 7, Thursday, 12:40 – 13:30 – room C

Hexaly is an innovative global optimization solver based on a nonlinear, set-based modeling formalism. This formalism unifies and extends modeling paradigms from mixed-integer linear programming, nonlinear programming, constraint programming, and black-box optimization. Internally, Hexaly integrates a broad range of exact and heuristic optimization techniques, including branch-and-bound, column and cut generation, constraint propagation, and local search, among others. From a computational standpoint, Hexaly demonstrates competitive performance with state-of-the-art solvers such as Gurobi, CPLEX, and OR-Tools, delivering efficient and scalable solutions to routing, scheduling, packing, clustering, and location problems. This presentation introduces the so-called set-based modeling formalism and demonstrates its scalability for solving large-scale problems. It further examines how the solver exploits this formalism to automatically orchestrate advanced exact and heuristic solution methods drawn from the current state of the art.

We look forward to connecting with the Operations Research community at the 2026 ISCO conference in Kuşadası, Türkiye.
