Nonlinear Programming

NonLinear programming can be divided into Quadratic models and complex models according to the type of objectives:

• Quadratic models. The objective function is Quadratic.

• Complex models

For some special problems, the objective could be an increase function to the decision varable. For an exampl, the system reliability is an increase function to the reliability of components. More effective algorithms can be applied for those problems.
