Nonlinear optimization system NopSy#1x

General description

The software system NopSy#1x is designed for solving general unconstrained minimization problem

min { f(x), x in E },

where

E is a finite-dimensional real vector space,
f is a two times differentiable function with Lipschitz-continuous second derivative.

Copy the packed version of the system on your computer using the reference NopSy#1C.
Unpack the folder "NopSy" in the root "C:\".
Create a shortcut to the application "C:\NopSy\bin\NopSy#1C.exe".
Read the manual (also reachable in menu item HELP/MANUAL).

Text input of the functional elements.
Standard syntax of the functional expressions.
Fast automatic differentiation.
Efficient implementation of the new and efficient second-order methods.
Library of the test problems.
Support for serial numerical tests.
Full theoretical justification.
Full online documentation support including the original papers on optimization methods.

The optimization system is implemented by Object-Oriented Pascal (Delphi).

In view of the text representation of optimization problems, the number of variables is bounded by 500.
