Abstract
A generalized primal-relaxed dual algorithm for global optimization is proposed and its convergence is proved. The (GOP) algorithm of Flouda s and Visweswaran (Refs. 1-2) is shown to be a special case of this ge neral algorithm. Within the proposed framework, the algorithm of Floud as and Visweswaran (Refs. 1-2) is further extended to the nonsmooth ca se. A penalty implementation of the extended (GOP) algorithm is studie d to improve its efficiency.
