SolvOpt

SolvOpt — Solver for Local Nonlinear Optimization Problems is a historical University of Graz optimization package by Alexei Kuntsevich and Franz Kappel. It uses a modified version of Shor's r-algorithm for local optimization of nonlinear, potentially nonsmooth functions and supports constrained problems.

The department's download site preserves version 1.1, released in June 1997, with MATLAB, C, and Fortran source distributions, test problems, demonstration code, and a detailed manual. This entry records that historical distribution and is marked archived under the directory's pre-2015 update policy.

The original installation instructions target much older compiler and MATLAB environments. Compatibility with current systems is not implied. The manual describes the software as freeware; consult its original terms before reuse.
