The SCIP Optimization Suite provides a collection of software packages for mathematical optimization centered around the constraint integer programming framework SCIP. The focus of this article is on the role of the SCIP Optimization Suite in supporting research. SCIP’s main design principles are discussed, followed by a presentation of the latest performance improvements and developments in version 8.0, which serve both as examples of SCIP’s application as a research tool and as a platform for further developments. Furthermore, this article gives an overview of interfaces to other programming and modeling languages, new features that expand the possibilities for user interaction with the framework, and the latest developments in several extensions built upon SCIP.

SCIP优化套件提供了一系列以约束整数规划框架SCIP为中心的数学优化软件包。本文的重点是SCIP优化套件在支持研究中的作用。讨论了SCIP的主要设计原则，随后介绍了 8.0 版本中最新的性能改进和发展，这两者都作为SCIP的示例的应用作为研究工具和作为进一步发展的平台。此外，本文还概述了与其他编程和建模语言的接口、扩展用户与框架交互可能性的新功能，以及基于 SCIP 构建的多个扩展的最新发展。
