The included python script simply takes an Ising spin glass Hamiltonian and guesses random configurations. The lowest energy guess is printed to the screen, preceeded by a 'v'.
bash:~$ python demo.py example.txt
v -1 1 1 -1 ...
To use it on Mindi, you will first need to install Docker (see these excellent instructions).
Next, run the following (be sure to replace the all caps keywords):
docker login -u DOCKERHUB_USERNAME -p DOCKERHUB_PASSWORD
docker build -t DOCKERHUB_USERNAME/SOLVER_NAME:SOLVER_VERSION .
docker push DOCKERHUB_USERNAME/SOLVER_NAME:SOLVER_VERSION
Finally, log into Mindi and submit the container URL under the bin packing challenge.
The solver with the lowest energy configuration wins!
