We want to welcome you to the CMU-IBM Cyberinfrastructure Collaborative site for MINLP: http://www.minlp.org and invite you to contribute to a unique library of MINLP optimization problems.

This site has been funded by the National Science Foundation, Grant OCI-0750826.

The major goal of this site is to create a library of optimization problems in different application areas in which one or several alternative models are presented with their derivation. In addition, each model has one or several instances that can serve to test various algorithms. While we are emphasizing MINLP models, you may also wish to submit MILP and NLP models that are relevant to problems that can be formulated as MINLP problems. The site is intended to provide a mechanism for researchers and users to contribute towards the creation of this library of optimization problems, and to provide a forum of discussion for algorithm developers and application users where alternative formulations can be discussed as well as performance and comparison of algorithms. The site also provides extensive information on various resources, meetings and bibliography.

If you have any comments or suggestions, please send them to:
minlp@andrew.cmu.edu

We very much look forward to your participation.
