The NEOS Server offers Uno for the solution of nonlinearly constrained optimization problems. Problems can be submitted in AMPL or NL format.
Uno is an open-source C++ solver that provides a unifying framework for nonlinearly constrained optimization. It decouples the algorithmic strategies (constraint violation/optimality measures, globalization mechanisms) from the subproblem solvers, allowing different combinations to be instantiated. Uno handles smooth nonlinear programs with equality and inequality constraints.
Uno was developed by Charlie Vanaret. For more information, see the Uno GitHub repository.
The user must submit a model in AMPL format. Examples are provided in the examples section of the AMPL website.
The problem must be specified in a model file. A data file and commands files may also be provided. If the commands file is specified, it must contain the AMPL solve command; however, it must not contain the model or data commands. The model and data files are renamed internally by NEOS. The commands file may include option settings for the solver. To specify solver options, add
solve
model
data
option uno_options 'OPTIONS';
