Aims and scope

Optimization Methods and Software

publishes refereed papers on the latest developments in the theory and realization of optimization methods, with particular emphasis on the interface between software development and algorithm design.

Topics include:

    Theory, implementation and performance evaluation of algorithms and computer codes for linear, nonlinear, discrete, stochastic optimization and optimal control. This includes in particular conic, semi-definite, mixed integer, network, non-smooth, multi-objective and global optimization by deterministic or nondeterministic algorithms.
    Algorithms and software for complementarity, variational inequalities and equilibrium problems, and also for solving inverse problems, systems of nonlinear equations and the numerical study of parameter dependent operators.
    Various aspects of efficient and user-friendly implementations: e.g. automatic differentiation, massively parallel optimization, distributed computing, on-line algorithms, error sensitivity and validity analysis, problem scaling, stopping criteria and symbolic numeric interfaces.
    Theoretical studies with clear potential for applications and successful applications of specially adapted optimization methods and software to fields like engineering, machine learning, data mining, economics, finance, biology, or medicine. These submissions should not consist solely of the straightforward use of standard optimization techniques.

Ruberti","Sapienza" Università di Roma, Italy liuzzi@diag.uniroma1.it Margherita Porcelli, Dipartimento di Ingegneria Industriale, Università degli Studi di Firenze, Italy margherita.porcelli@gmail.com Francesco Rinaldi, Dipartimento di Matematica "Tullio Levi-Civita", Università di Padova, Italy rinaldi@math.unipd.it In the last decades, the increase in computational power led to the development of even more sophisticated and complex models that need to be optimized. Frequently, function evaluation is the result of a time-consuming simulation, often nonsmooth or subject to numerical noise, preventing the use of derivative-based methods. Thus, Derivative-free and Simulation Based Optimization have emerged as important domains in nonlinear optimization, attracting researchers and practitioners to the development and analysis of efficient and robust algorithms, able to tackle these challenging problems. The present special issue appears on occasion of the 2nd Derivative-free Optimization Symposium, that will be held from 24-28 June 2024 at University of Padova, Italy, and intends to contribute for the advancement of the knowledge in this scientific domain. With a first edition held in 2022, at University of British Columbia, Canada, this series of meetings of single-track presentations intends to gather the Derivative-free Optimization community, promoting collaborations and the integration of new members. Main topics include, but are not restricted to: Derivative-free Optimization Simulation-based Optimization Blackbox Optimization Software development Worst-case complexity analysis Multiobjective Derivative-free Optimization Global Derivative-free Optimization Large-scale Derivative-free Optimization Applications
