WORK
|
Description
|
Amount of deterministic algorithmic "work" spent since the invocation of the search process. Work is measured in work units. In contrast with
TIME,
WORK is deterministic. It is also independent of the platform and hardware used. At the end of a search, the optimizer reports both the accumulated total work as well as the speed at which WORK has been accumulated (measured in work units per second) in the log file. The accumulation of work depends on the size of the model being solved, the involved algorithms, and the stage of the search.

Note
|
Work is independent of the platform and machine used. In contrast to wall clock time and the related controls, work is deterministic, i.e., multiple invocations of the optimizer will always yield the same amount of work unless a time limit has been hit.
