In this post I’ll show you the steps you need to take, if you want to use the powerful GUROBI solver from Matlab in order to solve Mixed Integer Linear Programs. Install the GUROBI Solver Go to the Gurobi website, create an account and download the version applicable for your operating system here. Acquire and… Read more Calling GUROBI from Matlab

Solve Optimization Tasks using GUROBI Cloud
What is the objective here? I will document the steps needed to setup Gurobi to solve a Linear Program in the cloud. For this example we will use a simple linear model and use Matlab to invoke the locally installed Gurobi solver, which in turn would forward it to a Gurobi Compute Server, which we… Read more Solve Optimization Tasks using GUROBI Cloud
Run OSRM in Docker on Windows
After the OSRM routing service is no longer available on Windows we have a good reason to try to run it in a Docker container. However, there are some hurdles that have to be overcome in order to get your daemon up and running. SInce I’ve gone through this, I write down the necessary steps… Read more Run OSRM in Docker on Windows
Set-Operations on data.frames
Have you been loooking for a nice way to determine differences of sets of dataframes in R? There is a very cool package, part of the tidyverse from Hadley Wickham. See here, how simple it is to perform this task in R, with dplyr installed: If you would like to preserve the information contained in… Read more Set-Operations on data.frames
Change Local Library for R-Packages
You might have been wondering, that after having installed or updated your system to a new R version, the package installation Path within your RStudio still refers to your “old” location. In some situations, this might make sense. However, after changing to a completeley new version (main release number) of R, you might want to… Read more Change Local Library for R-Packages
Marquee on a 8×8 LED Matrix Display run by a Battery powered Arduino Pro Mini
In this post I’ll show you how to implement a marquee running on an Arduino Pro Mini (5V). The project uses a slightly adapted version of the C source we developed for running the same project based on a Raspberry Pi 3B+. The main changes werd applied due to the two function void setup() and… Read more Marquee on a 8×8 LED Matrix Display run by a Battery powered Arduino Pro Mini
Font Design for Raspberry Marquee Project
Since the 8×8 LED Matrix Display I used in my marquee project is able to display 8×8 pixel sized letters and I am a great fan of the old Commodore 64 I designed the the font according to the C64 charset visible here: Based on the hardware reference provided here you can get the information… Read more Font Design for Raspberry Marquee Project
Start programming you Pi
Here I describe the steps needed to start writing simple c programs on your raspberry pi. I did my experiments using a raspberry pi 3b+, you can use whatever model you like. If you don’t have a bootable SD card ready, please first follow the steps provided in this post. I installed ubuntu mate on… Read more Start programming you Pi
