Hi Pang,

what do you mean exactly with "sometimes the process may be killed"?

In general, SCIP does not provide the possibility to restart from a 
saved state. The only exception is reoptimization but this feature has 
to be enable before solving the problem. Reoptimization automatically 
collects information like open and pruned nodes. However, this does not 
work if the solving process got killed. SCIP has to terminate in a 
proper state, e.g., if the gap limit has been reached.

Best,
Jakob
