<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:12.0pt"><span style>Dear Sirs,</span></p><span style>I'm
an Italian student of the Faculty of Statistics of Padua. I'm writing
the final thesis for my master. The thesis is about optimization and I
am working on it at a company. Our purpose is to maximize a Performance
Index (PI) relative to a function. This function has a rather
complicated structure (within the main function other functions are
called that call other functions...). Now we are optimizing the PI
running a Design of Experiment (DOE), but this solution it's slow and
requires large computing resources because we have to analyze all
possible combination of DOE. <br>We would like to know if there is a
possible solution to speed up our optimization problem with your
software like send to admb a smaller DOE and find anyway the best PI.<br>We would like to know also if your software can talk with MatLab which is development environment in use at the company.<br><br>Best regards<br><br>
