Abstract

This paper aims to present the development of a computational tool to assist professionals in the optimization field in implementation of methods and problem solving. The project was developed as dissertation topic in the Masters Program in Computer Science and Computational Mathematics at ICMC/USP. The tool can be considered as a development environment (framework) and will be called ProOF - Professional Optimization Framework. The ProOF is mainly focused on guiding the implementation of various computational methods for optimization problems using as a paradigm the object-oriented programming. This framework incorporating the principal features found in other tools proposed in the literature. Moreover, seeks to facilitate the implementation of methods and problem resolution by allowing high code reuse, give support to code generation in different programming languages and generate a Graphical User Interface (GUI) automatic for parameter setting of methods implemented by the user. Some recently published studies have used previous versions of the ProOF and they will be cited as a case study to attest the robustness of the proposed framework. Finally, a comparison will be made between the ProOF and other existing frameworks in the literature (AU)
