# kowalik.mod OBR2-AN-4-8 # Original AMPL coding by Elena Bobrovnikova (summer 1996 at Bell Labs). # Kowalik & Osborne problem, originally stated in # J. R. Kowalik and M. R. Osborne, Methods for Unconstrained Minimization, # American Elsevier, New York, 1968. # but with modified b[i] values as specified in # C. Jansson and O. Knueppel, "A Global Minimization Method: the Multi- # Dimensional Case", Technische Informatik III, TU Hamburg-Hamburg, Jan. 1992. # where the problem is called just "Kowalik".
