Abstract

This project aims to bring prof. Eckstein to visit IMECC, Unicamp, for three weeks. During this period we will try to advance our research on the inexact solution of the subproblems arising in multiplier methods, related algorithms and their implementation. The visit also has the objective to explorer possibilities of new cooperation of prof. Eckstein and other members of the IMECC's continuous optimization group. (AU)
