Abstract
En 中文
Many local optimal solution methods have been developed for solving generalized geometric programming (GGP). But up to now, less work has been devoted to solving global optimization of (GGP) problem due to the inherent difficulty. This paper considers the global minimum of (GGP) problems. By utilizing an exponential variable transformation and the inherent property of the exponential function and some other techniques the initial nonlinear and nonconvex (GGP) problem is reduced to a sequence of linear programming problems. The proposed algorithm is proven that it is convergent to the global minimum through the solutions of a series of linear programming problems. Test results indicate that the proposed algorithm is extremely robust and can be used successfully to solve the global minimum of (GGP) on a microcomputer. (C) 2007 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
