This volume contains a thorough overview of the rapidly growing field of global optimization, with chapters on key topics such as complexity, heuristic methods,

Due to the general complementary convex structure underlying most nonconvex optimization problems encountered in applications, convex analysis plays an essentia

Optimization is of critical importance in engineering. Engineers constantly strive for the best possible solutions, the most economical use of limited resources

This book will present the papers delivered at the first U.S. conference devoted exclusively to global optimization and will thus provide valuable insights into
