Resolving Communication Control and Management Problems with Modified Filled Function Method

Abstract

Filled function method is an approach to find the global minimum of nonlinear functions. Many problems, such as computing, communication control, and management, in real applications naturally result in global optimization formulations in a form of nonlinear global integer programming.This paper gives a modified filled function method to solve the nonlinear global integer programming problem.The properties of the proposed modified filled function are also discussed in this paper. The results of preliminary numerical experiments are also reported.
