Civilingenjör (Teknisk fysik) 1975,
Tekn.Dr 1982, Docent 1993, Professor 2005.
Worked for the
Contract Research Group of Applied Mathematics, 1976-1985.
Worked as senior lecturer
at the division of Optimization and Systems Theory,
1986-2004.
Worked as professor
at the division of Optimization and Systems Theory,
2005-2017.
Professor emeritus since January 2018.
Has developed an optimization method called MMA (Method of
Moving Asymptotes),
and another optimization method called GCMMA (Globally
Convergent version of MMA).
The corresponding computer codes in Matlab
are available for academic usage.
Prospective users
should write an e-mail,
explaining the intended usage of the codes.
For the original MMA paper from 1987,
see originalmma.pdf.
For the mathematical background of GCMMA,
see siampaper.pdf.
For the implementations of MMA and GCMMA,
see mmagcmma.pdf.
