Hi, @FabianHofmann.

Sorry for the delay, I want to get the ball rolling on this one so this is my first pass on the review. I will come back with more once I find more time.

Really enjoyed looking through this, nicely written code and easy to follow.

I have mostly minor comments/things I'd like to see. Feel free to provide arguments why my comments are not needed/appropriate.

Benchmarks

• Comparison of model building times for some well-known model types: e.g. p-median, knapsack, n-queens. I understand that it may not be any different for linopy, however, other APIs may have a different (and significant overhead for different, more complex constraints).
• I'd like to see a comparison against all major Python packages: PuLP, Pyomo, Highspy, Gurobipy (standard API), Gurobipy-matrixAPI (note major changes in v10.0 so please re-run benchmarks), ortools-pywraplp. (I may have missed some).
• If you want to also include things like JuMP, (or other languages) it would be a more complete benchmark but I would say this is more optional.
• Include solution retrieval in these benchmarks: i.e. extract all variable solution values.

General code

• Status codes, termination conditions, and constraint signs are not easily maintainable as a string (e.g. typos, m.add_constraints(x, ",", 0) would work just error when trying to solve. Please add some appropriate internal constants or some other data structure for these three things. Users can then export and use (similar to GRB.OPTIMAL, GRB.EQUAL etc).
• What is the preferred way of building large models? xarray supports building from anything array-like, e.g. numpy, pandas dataframe, but would be good to know which is the best/fastest way of doing this, or your recommendation.

General

• Please add the info you have in the docs pages (https://linopy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/) about contributing in a CONTRIBUTING.md file (this is standard GitHub).
• What's the status of generic non-linear constraints? Is this easy enough to do? Support Quadratic terms  PyPSA/linopy#18
• PWL would be good (Support Piecewise linear expression PyPSA/linopy#19) but also other general constraints (not sure which ones would work). Also, not all solver support these.
• Functionality dive: for someone not used to the xarray syntax, it would be cool that you showcase some simple examples already in the README, however, this is my preference. I would also like to see some more complex examples in the examples directory. I like the shifting stuff with the y variables for example.

File Types

• More as a question: I have never heard of NetCDF, what are the advantages when compared to the widely used mps format, for example?
• I would like to see functionality for MPS as well. And tested for across all solvers.
• LP files contain unnecessary blank lines. These can make files a lot bigger in size than they need to be.
• Some files are executable: setup.py, linopy/__init__.py, test/test_model_creation.py.

Paper edits

• PuLP needs a proper citation.
• N-dimensional labelled is not a very well-known term in the OR community (I'd never heard this term). I would revise the title to something that is more in the court of the core users of this package. (again, this is my opinion).

[FabianHofmann]

Hey @toressa,

first of all thank you for your detailed review! These are all very helpful comments and I could finally find some time to address them. Since version 0.0.11 actually a lot has happened. A lot has to do with stabilizing the API and the data handling.
I will try to address all your comments in the following.

Benchmarks

The benchmark was extended. It now includes the following models:

• knapsack
• the original model

which can chosen by the user. The figure in the paper shows the benchmark of the knapsack problem. It compares the following apis:

• linopy
• JuMP
• cvxpy
• pulp
• pyomo
• gurobipy (matrix api)
• ortools

However, ortools does not yet support gurobi v10, therefore it did not make it into the final figure. The knapsack model and the original problem lead to very similar overheads. So I hope it is okay to not extend the set of benchmark models further. As far I see it, the solution retrieval is included by the all AML's.

General code

I added a constants module to define sets of constant values used in linopy, i.e. senses, solver status, termination condition. It also includes a solution class definition and result class definition (used for consistent print out of results).

To answer your question about the preferred tool, from the computational point of view, it does not make a difference which data handling tool (numpy, pandas, xarray) is used, as they all rely on numpy arrays in the background. However, I pointed out in the doc that xarray is the most convenient and safe tool to create variables.

General

I added a CONTRIBUTING.md file to the repository. It points to the contributing guidelines in the documentation.

As for the PWL and QC, we discussed a rough but promising structure how to represent them. But for the proper implementation, I will need to have some spare time, or have a motivated and competent student to work on it. So I hope it is fine to not make a requirement for the JOSS contribution.

Good point about the more complex example cases. There were already some users asking for it. I created an issue that I will work on in the next weeks.

File Types

NetCDF is a data format that is used in many scientific fields. It is a very convenient format to store multidimensional data. It is also the default format for xarray, is extremely fast, and can be used to store large amounts of data. In OR, NetCDF is not used to my knowledge. Its use case here is not transferring a linopy model to other APIs but rather store a linopy model to fast disk. It is also used when solving a linopy model on a remote server.

The export in MPS file format is now also supported by linopy. And tested across all solvers PyPSA/linopy#97

The executable files were corrected.

Citation

I added a citation for PuLP

About the naming. Fair point. However I wanted to build the bridge between the data science and the OR community. So, unless I have a brainwave, I would stick to that name.

---

I hope that tackles all the point so far!

Thanks again and looking forward to hear from you!

Also pinging @g4brielvs whether there are remaining things on the list that I should cover for the package :)

[FabianHofmann]

@Fei-Tao a short question: is it possible to update the version of the package addressed in the paper?

@torressa gently pinging you again. Do you have any remaining comments?

[torressa]

Thanks for all the work!

I think I am happy now with the code.
Just a few more items for the paper itself.
I ran the benchmarks and I think the experiments in the paper need a bit more
detail. Particularly, version numbers (e.g. Python, gurobipy, Julia, JuMP) and machine details (CPU specs, OS) and benchmark model (i.e. knapsack or other).

When I ran these on my machine the plots looked slightly different that's why I am asking.
(I also had to modify the profiling function to populate the memory field for it to produce a plot).

Citations:

• Gurobi: How do I cite Gurobi software for an academic publication?

@misc{gurobi,
  author = {{Gurobi Optimization, LLC}},
  title = {{Gurobi Optimizer Reference Manual}},
  year = 2023,
  url = "https://www.gurobi.com"
}

I didn't really find citation details for the other solvers.

[FabianHofmann]

@torressa thanks for reviewing again. I've created a README for the benchmark which gives all necessary information how to reproduce the plots. Software and hardware specifications are now given here, these are also referenced in the paper.
As for the memory profiler, I have to admit that this is also a bit opaque for me. I have relied on the built-in memory profiler of snakemake. It seemed that sometimes it does not yield expected values. However with the current setting (fixed number of threads per job), it seems to be quite stable. Please let me know if you encounter problems.
I have adjusted the Gurobi reference, thanks for looking into it.

Let me know if there is further things to do :)

[torressa]

Perfect thanks!
All good from my side. We need to bump the version but other than that good to go.

Hi @openjournals/dsais-eics , the submission looks good to me now. Could you take it from here?

[FabianHofmann]

@Fei-Tao so far nothing happened. Do you know the reason why?

[Fei-Tao]

@FabianHofmann the editor-in-chief is probably busy. Please wait with patience.

Hi @openjournals/dsais-eics, could you please take a look at this submission at your convenience? Thanks for your time.

[FabianHofmann]

@Fei-Tao thanks for the reply and sorry if I bother you again. I actually think the recommend-accept command did not work properly. Normally, the issue should have a recommend-accept tag and a message created from the bot, like here. Typically, the JOSS team is very responsive and an answer after the recommendation takes a couple of days at max.

[Fei-Tao]

@FabianHofmann I will try to run the recommend-accept again.
