1  Introduction

1.1  Overview

Welcome to the TOMLAB /CONOPT  User's Guide. TOMLAB /CONOPT  includes the CONOPT NLP solver from Arki Development and Consulting A/S and provides an interface to The MathWorks' MATLAB.

CONOPT  is a feasible path solver based on the old proven GRG method with many newer extensions. CONOPT  has been designed to be efficient and reliable for a broad class of models. The original GRG method helps achieve reliability and speed for models with a large degree of nonlinearity, i.e. difficult models, and CONOPT  is often preferable for very nonlinear models and for models where feasibility is difficult to achieve.

1.2  Contents of this Manual

  • Section 1 provides a basic overview of the CONOPT  solver.
  • Section 2 provides an overview of the Matlab interface to CONOPT .
  • Section 3 describes how to set CONOPT  solver options from Matlab.
  • Section 4 gives detailed information about the interface routine conoptTL .

1.4  Prerequisites

In this manual we assume that the user is familiar with nonlinear programming, setting up problems in TOMLAB  (in particular constrained nonlinear (con) problems) and the Matlab  language in general.
