Abstract
In this paper, we present a long-step primal path-following algorithm and prove its global convergence under usual assumptions. It is seen t hat the short-step algorithm is a special case of the long-step algori thm for a specific selection of the parameters and the initial solutio n. Our theoretical result indicates that the long-step algorithm is mo re flexible. Numerical results indicate that the long-step algorithm c onverges faster than the short-step algorithm.
