abstract

The NEOS Server is now available for general access.
The Server provides remote solution of optimization
problems over the Internet. Users can submit problems
via email, ftp, or the World Wide Web.
Results are returned via email and/or their Web browser.

The NEOS server uses state-of-the-art algorithms to solve
optimization problems automatically with minimal input from
the user. For example, users with nonlinear problems can opt
to have derivatives calculated automatically. The NEOS Server
currently solves problems in the following areas:

Linear Programming
Unconstrained Minimization
Stochastic Linear Programming
Bound Constrained Minimization
Linear Network Optimization
