Methods of solution of nonlinear extremal problems

Cybernetics Aims and scope

Conclusion

In the present paper only general methods of solving mathematical programming problems have been considered, and special methods intended for solving problems of a definite class have not been touched upon. In particular, the method of dynamic programming has not been considered.

The development of simple special methods is of paramount practical value. As a rule, a concrete extremal problem has essential peculiarities, because of which it is possible to conduct a more meaningful investigation than is possible in the general case, and thus obtain a simplified method of solution.
