Does nonlinear programming seem too difficult to even attempt? Here is a simplified overview of how to make NLP work in practice: basic concepts, computer tools and tips on how to be successful. - MC04.2 Beyond Prototypes: Using Modeling Languages in Customized Application Software
Modeling languages are great prototyping tools, but how do they help modelers build production systems for end users? We describe modeling language features that help developers shorten the implementation cycle by embedding algebraic models inside customized user-interfaces. - MC04.3 New Directions in Algebraic Modeling Languages
Modeling systems for optimization can be enhanced by extending the design of their input (a modeling language) or of their output (a problem representation for solvers). Often, extensions to both are required. We discuss a variety of extensions and their interactions, with examples from recent and forthcoming features in AMPL.
