This book contains 112 papers selected from about 250 submissions to the 6th World Congress on Global Optimization (WCGO 2019) which takes place on July 8–10,

This volume contains a thorough overview of the rapidly growing field of global optimization, with chapters on key topics such as complexity, heuristic methods,

In science, engineering and economics, decision problems are frequently modelled by optimizing the value of a (primary) objective function under stated feasibil

The research of Antanas Zilinskas has focused on developing models for global optimization, implementing and investigating the corresponding algorithms, and app

Interest in constrained optimization originated with the simple linear pro gramming model since it was practical and perhaps the only computationally tractable
