This tool can improve communication based on communication boards and iconographic symbols. Users with motor and communication disturbs can communicate by selecting characters on a computer screen using expressions like Blink (simultaneous blink left and right eye), individual blink(blink left or right eye), smile, raise eyebrow and some others.

...Unfortunately, glpk does not support any multithreading and there is no feature to distribute problems via network connections. Today, this is a pitiable sight, because modern computer systems are coupled by networks and support multi threading. We create a distributed system with Apache thrift and the C-API of glpk. Now, it is possible to use as many cores in a network as you want. With a focus on the MILP methods we implement a load balancing and speed up the solving process in a multiplicative way. Sometimes we have super-linear speedup with a small set of hardware. ...
