Abstract
Two non-linear programming algorithms based on the Lagrangian function are compared with respect to their computational efficiency for solving parameterized optimal control problems. If the most efficient, constrained variable metric method together with forward-difference gradients is used, the formulation and implementation of the adjoint variables can be avoided. This is especially convenient in the design phase of large complex systems.
