Global Optimization of Nonconvex Factorable Programs with Applications to Engineering Design Problems
… involves the optimization of a general nonconvex factorable objective function over a feasible region that is restricted by a set of constraints, each of which is defined in terms of nonconvex factorable functions. Such problems find widespread applications in production planning, location and …

Solving Factorable Programs with Applications to Cluster Analysis, Risk Management, and Control Systems Design
… be viewed as belonging to the class of nonconvex programs, it has only been in recent times that optimization research has confronted the more formidable class of continuous nonconvex optimization problems, where the objective function and constraints are often highly nonlinear and nonconvex …

Resource Allocation on Networks: Nested Event Tree Optimization, Network Interdiction, and Game Theoretic Methods
… the problem as a specially structured nonconvex factorable program, and develop two branch-and-bound schemes based respectively on utilizing a convex nonlinear relaxation and a linear outer-approximation, both of which are proven to converge to a global optimal solution. We also investigate a …
