SNOPT is a software package for solving large-scale optimization
problems written by Philip Gill, Walter Murray and Michael Saunders.
It is especially effective for nonlinear problems whose functions and gradients are expensive to evaluate. The functions should be smooth but need not be convex.
Optimization (mathematics)
In mathematics, computational science, or management science, mathematical optimization refers to the selection of a best element from some set of available alternatives....
