Hi Patrick,

You may be interested in Bob++, a C++ framework for parallel search 
programs. Among other features, it allows to build branch-and-bound 
based algorithms on top of several parallel environments, such as Kaapi.
One of the available example programs is a simple MIP solver. The LP 
subproblems can be solved using GLPK, through the Glop API.
