Learn the main differences between linear and nonlinear programming, examples of problems that require each method, and tips to identify the best method.

A small nonlinear numerical example illustrates the calculation of these bounds. For this example the bounds closely bracket the optimum solution to the two-stage problem. OR professionals in every ...

The purpose of this paper is to develop a nonlinear programming method for solving a type of cooperative games in which there are multiple objectives and coalitions' values on objectives are expressed ...

There is shown an example of representation of problems of walking machines movement optimization to the form of convex optimization problems. Fuzzy formalization of convex optimization problems is ...

Bracken and McGill have discussed the theory, computations, and an example of mathematical programming models with optimization problems in the constraints [Opns. Res. 21, 37-44 (1973)], and have ...

Nonlinear programs can be input into the procedure in various ways. The objective, constraint, and derivative fucntions are specified using the programming statements of PROC NLP.
