Parallel computing, interval derivative methods, heuristic algorithms, and their implementation in a numerical solver, for deterministic global optimization
This thesis presents new algorithms for the deterministic global optimization of general non-linear programming problems (NLPs). It is proven that the αBB general underestimator may provide exact lower bounds on a function only if rigorous conditions are satisfied. These conditions are derived and t...
