Interactive Optimization System

IFAC Proceedings Volumes, 1979
Summary An interactive optimization system is described which was developed for solving unconstrained minimization, nonlinear programming problems and optimal control problems. The system library of algorithms contains both novel and currently available methods.

Optimization of Maintained Systems

IEEE Transactions on Reliability, 1980
This paper formulates the problem of optimization of maintained systems with constraints on both availability and mean cycle-time. The objective function is the sum of recurring and nonrecurring costs. An example is solved using Fletcher's ideal-penalty-function algorithm which is also briefly described.

An Optimal Tax System* [PDF]

Fiscal Studies, 2011
AbstractA notable feature and principal virtue of Tax by Design is its system‐wide perspective on different elements of the tax system. This review essay builds on this trait and offers a more explicit foundation for the report's general approach, drawing on a distribution‐neutral methodology that is developed in other work.

Optimization of hybrid systems

Computers & Chemical Engineering, 2006
An overview of dynamic optimization problems with hybrid systems embedded is presented. The control parameterization approach is examined in detail, where the possibility of mode switching within the hybrid system causes nonsmoothness in the Master problem, thus invalidating gradient based solvers.

On optimal modeling of systems

Journal of Optimization Theory and Applications, 1973
A procedure, based on Sard's generalized spline, for modeling a linear system by an optimal finite-dimensional system is presented. Error bounds are given and the results are illustrated by means of two examples.

On Optimal Algorithms and Optimal Proof Systems

1999
A deterministic algorithm O accepting a language L is called (polynomially) optimal if for any algorithm A accepting L there is a polynomial p such that timeO(x) ≤ p(|x|+ timeA(x)) for every x ∈ L. It is shown that an optimal acceptor for a language L exists if there is a p-optimal proof system for L.

Hemostasis as an optimal system

Mathematical Biosciences, 2006
Zymogen and procofactor concentrations in physiological biochemical systems (PBS) have not yet been explained. The problem in question is to determine optimal plasma clotting factor (factors II, VII, IX, and X and cofactors V and VIII) concentrations for coagulation system (CS) as a whole.

Optimization of Optical Systems

Applied Optics, 1966
The power signal-to-noise ratios for coherent and noncoherent optical detection are presented, with the expression for noncoherent detection being examined in detail. It is found that for the long range optical system to compete with its microwave counterpart it is necessary to optimize the optical system.

Optimality with hydropower system

IEEE Transactions on Power Systems, 2002
This paper studies an electricity producer's long-term optimality in the case of a multireservoir hydropower system. The model solves the optimal production process and trading strategy of electricity and weather derivatives by maximizing the utility from production and terminal water reservoir level.
