We consider a generalized semi-infinite optimization problem (GSIP) of the form (GSIP) min{f(x) Ix E M}, where M = {x E N"lhi(x ) = 0, i = 1,...,m, G(x,y) /> 0, y E Y(x)} ...
Deterministic optimization approaches have been well developed and widely used in the process industry to accomplish off-line and on-line process optimization. The challenging tas...
In recent years second-order sufficient conditions of an isolated local minimizer for convex composite optimization problems have been established. In this paper, second-order opt...
We investigate optimal control problems subject to mixed control-state constraints. The necessary conditions are stated in terms of a local minimum principle. By use of the Fischer...
We present new techniques for explicit constraint satisfaction in the incremental placement process. Our algorithm employs a Lagrangian Relaxation (LR) type approach in the analyt...
