Abstract
Research in the area of this project has been conducted in the Department of Applied Mathematics of the University of Campinas, under the direction of the main researcher, in the last 22 years. Many works have been developed both in theory and practical aspects of the numerical resolution of nonlinear systems, unconstrained minimization, bound constrained minimization, nonlinear programming, complementarity, variational inequalities and applications. Many M.Sc. and D.Sc. dissertations have been elaborated in the area of the project. Here, we aim to continue the already developed work, in all its aspects. An important difference with respect to previous projects of the group (in particular with respect to the projeto temático 90/03724-6) is that a broad field of applications for numerical methods is included. In fact, we axe currently involved in problems of estimation of parameters in film calculations, and the interest of this work outside Optimization and, even, outside Mathematics, seems very intense. These problems motivate the development of new methods, provide new ideas and challenges and, in general, act as powerful stimula to innovative research. (AU)
