Heuristics for Global Optimization of Constrained Nonlinear Programs.

Abstract

The author considers the problem of finding the global solution to non-convex nonlinear programs which may have local solutions distinct from the global solution. Several heuristic methods are proposed. The advantage and disadvantages of heuristic methods as compared with algorithmic methods are discussed. (Author)
