2025 INFORMS San Francisco Chapter

Hexaly is the Platinum sponsor of the 2025 INFORMS San Francisco Chapter conference, September 26, 2025, at UC Berkeley, CA. The conference program can be accessed here.
Come by the Hexaly booth to meet Fred Gardi, Founder & CEO of Hexaly, and discover the new release Hexaly 14.0, which delivers dramatic performance improvements for solving Routing, Scheduling, Packing, Clustering, Assignment, Location, and many other problems in Supply Chain and Workforce Optimization. This is also the opportunity to explore and discuss our many job offers. Below are the abstracts of Fred’s talks at the 2025 INFORMS San Francisco Chapter conference.
Hexaly: a super-fast, super-scalable optimization solver, by Fred Gardi, founder & CEO
Friday, September 26, 2:15 PM – 2:35 PM
Hexaly is a new type of optimization solver. Its modeling interface is nonlinear and set-oriented. It also supports user-coded functions, enabling seamless integration of simulation with optimization or machine learning with optimization. The Hexaly API unifies modeling concepts from mixed-integer programming, nonlinear programming, and constraint programming. Under the hood, Hexaly combines various exact and heuristic optimization methods: spatial branch-and-bound, simplex methods, interior-point methods, propagation, automatic branch-cut-price, local search, and surrogate modeling.
Hexaly stands out from traditional MILP and CP solvers by delivering super-fast solutions to very large-scale problems like routing, scheduling, sequencing, packing, clustering, matching, assignment, and location. For example, Hexaly provides solutions close to the best-known results in the literature for vehicle routing problems with thousands of points and scheduling problems with millions of tasks, achieving this in just one minute of runtime on a basic computer.
We look forward to connecting with the operations research community at the 2025 INFORMS San Francisco Chapter conference in Berkeley.
