A Unified Computer Program for Schittkowski's Test Problem 377

Jsun Yui Wong
 
Similar to the computer programs of the preceding papers, the computer program below seeks to solve Schittkowski's Test Problem 377 [14, p. 196].  The source of this Test Problem 377 is S. Walukiewicz; see Schittkowski [14].  The problem is to minimize the following:

10
SIGMA        X(i) *  ( C(i)  +LOG(  X(i)/SONE       )   )
i=1

             10
where SONE= SIGMA   X(j)
             j=1

C(1) through C(10) are given in line 11 and line 13

subject to

X(1)     -  2*X(2) +  2* X(3)    +   X(6)    + X(10)    -    2   =0

X(4) -  2* X(5)    +   X(6)    +     X(7)   -    1               =0

X(3)   +   X(7)    +   X(8) +2* X(9)   +     X(10)   -    1     =0

0.1E-04<= X(i)<=10, i=1 , 2 , 3,...,10.

The computer program's arrangement of line 380, line 381, and line 383 is to induce domino effect.

This BASIC computer program was run via basica/D of Microsoft's GW-BASIC 3.11 interpreter for DOS.  See the BASIC manual [11].  Copied by hand from the screen, the complete output through
JJJJ=-31996 is shown below:

On a personal computer with a Pentium Dual-Core CPU E5200 @2.50GHz, 2.50 GHz, 960 MB of RAM, and the IBM basica/D interpreter, version GW BASIC 3.11,  the wall-clock time for obtaining the output through JJJJ=-31996 was seven minutes and ten seconds.
