This grant is for the development of open-source Linear Programming (LP) and Mixed Integer Linear Programming (MILP) solvers tailored for CalSim and CalLite applications. The Bureau of Reclamation seeks to provide highly efficient computational methods and advanced software solutions to enhance these crucial water resources simulation models. CalSim and CalLite are widely utilized general-purpose models that empower users to swiftly create system representations and define intricate operational criteria. This essential research into CalSim/CalLite application-specific LP and MILP solvers is expected to significantly improve the simulation capabilities for large and complex water resource systems, ultimately aiding in more effective management and planning studies.

Description: | The Mid-Pacific Region of the Bureau of Reclamation (Reclamation) intends to issue a Notice of Intent for a cooperative agreement under the Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit (CESU) # 03FC810873 and Catalog of Federal Domestic Award CFDA # 15.512 to University of California, Davis for the following program: Development of open-source LP/MILP for CALSIM/CalLite. The purpose of this agreement is to provide efficient computational methods and software for solving linear programming (LP) and mixed integer linear program (MILP) for CalSim and CalLite applications. CalSim and CalLite are general –purpose water resources simulation models that enable users to quickly develop system representations and specify operational criteria. The research into CalSim/CalLite application-specific LP and MILP solvers should lead to the continued improvement of the simulation of large, complex water resource systems for management and planning studies. Refer to Notice of Intent (NOI) to award announcement, R13AS20029 for additional information.
