Additional technical documentation
- FlexNet License Administration Guide (PDF) - the detailed license system guide for advanced users. For most users the MOSEK licensing guide above should be sufficient.
Modeling
- The MOSEK Modeling Cookbook (HTML) - is a mathematically oriented publication about conic optimization which presents the theory, examples and many tips and tricks about formulating optimization problems. Also available as PDF (A4) and PDF (letter).
- Portfolio Optimization with MOSEK - a collection of portfolio optimization models, code samples and the MOSEK Portfolio Optimization Cookbook.
- Conic Modeling Cheatsheet (PDF).
The MOSEK Notebook Collection
A collection of tutorials which demonstrate how to model and solve various optimization problems with MOSEK. Further case studies can be found in the documentation and on MOSEK GitHub.
