Primal-dual methods: theory and practice
Development of a complete primal-dual method involves both theory 
and practice, typically closely intertwined.   Relevant topics
include the applicable problem domain, convergence properties, 
formulation and solution of subproblems, and large numbers of 
algorithmic and computational details.   Primal-dual methods of 
many flavors have been proposed and implemented in recent years.  
It seems appropriate at this stage to assess and examine their 
commonality as well as their differences in several of these 
dimensions.
