MIDACO-SOLVER

MIDACO is a numerical high-performance software for solving single- and multi-objective optimization problems. Initially developed for Mixed Integer Nonlinear Programming (MINLP) problems arising from challenging space applications at the European Space Agency [3], [7] and Astrium (Airbus Group) [7], the software was extended and constructed as general-purpose solver to fit a wide range of optimization problems. MIDACO handles problems where the objective functions f(x) depend on continuous, integer or both types (mixed integer case) of variables x. The problem might be further restricted to equality and/or inequality constraints g(x). Below is a sketch of the optimization problem considered by MIDACO... As black-box optimizer, MIDACO does not require the objective f(x) and constraint g(x) functions to be given in explicit mathematical form. For a given input of decision variables x, MIDACO requires only the returning numerical values of the objectives and constraints. How those..
