Nondifferentiable Optimization: Motivations and Applications: Proceedings of an IIASA (International Institute for Applied Systems Analysis) Workshop on Nondifferentiable Optimization Held at Sopron, Hungary, September 17-22, 1984

The International Institute for Applied Systems Analysis (IIASA) in Laxenburg, Austria, has been involved in research on nondifferentiable optimization since 1976. IIASA—based East—West cooperation in this field has been very productive, leading to many important theoretical, algorithmic and applied results. Nondifferentiable optimi­ zation has now become a recognized and rapidly developing branch of mathematical programming. To continue this tradition, and to review recent developments in ...
