 ## Installing the environment
 It is also possible to install all dependencies using [nix](https://nixos.org/). The file [default.nix](default.nix) provides all dependencies (see buildInputs variable inside this file).
 
+### Install dependencies using nix
 To install it using nix, execute the following command:
 
 ```bash
 nix-shell
 ```
 
-Besides the dependencies, we executed our experiments using Gurobi. So, it is necessary to have a Gurobi license to have the same results. It is possible to execute it using another solver, by modifying the file *GenerateExperiments/experiments.py* when it calls prob.solve(). However, in this case, you can have different results (mainly concerning execution time).
+### Install dependencies by hand
+To install it using python virtual env, execute the following commands:
+```bash
+python3 -m venv .venv
+source .venv/bin/activate
+python3 -m pip install pip==24.0
+python3 -m pip install -r requirements.txt
