    Course Highlights


    This course features a full set of lecture notes, in addition to other materials used by students in the course. The materials are largely based on the textbook, Nonlinear Programming: 2nd Edition, written by Professor Dimitri Bertsekas (see the publisher's site for more information).


    Course Description


    6.252J is a course in the department's "Communication, Control, and Signal Processing" concentration. This course provides a unified analytical and computational approach to nonlinear optimization problems. The topics covered in this course include: unconstrained optimization methods, constrained optimization methods, convex analysis, Lagrangian relaxation, nondifferentiable optimization, and applications in integer programming. There is also a comprehensive treatment of optimality conditions, Lagrange multiplier theory, and duality theory. Throughout the course, applications are drawn from control, communications, power systems, and resource allocation problems.


    Technical Requirements
