The oscillator problem consists of determining good initial values for the node voltages and the frequency of oscillation and the avoidance of the DC solution. Standard approaches...
In this paper, a primal dual method for general possible nonconvex nonlinear optimization problems is considered. The method is an exterior point type method which means that it p...
We propose an SQP-type algorithm for solving nonlinear second-order cone programming (NSOCP) problems. At every iteration, the algorithm solves a convex SOCP subproblem in which th...
In this paper, we provide theoretical analysis for a cubic regularization of Newton method as applied to unconstrained minimization problem. For this scheme, we prove general local...
A linear wirelength objective more e ectively captures timing, congestion, and other global placement considerations than a squared wirelength objective. The GORDIAN-L cell placem...
