Computation and Theory in Nonlinear Optimization

Abstract

The research objectives of this program were: (1) To extend the theory base in nonsmooth analysis; (2) To apply that theory to develop algorithms that extend the range of optimization problems that can be solved; (3) To improve the understanding of convergence behavior in stochastic optimization; and (4) To apply that understanding to the design and analysis of improved algorithms for solving optimization problems in important application areas such as manufacturing.
