<longdescription lang="en">
  OPT++ is a library of nonlinear optimization algorithms written in
  C++. The motivation for this package is to build an environment for
  the rapid prototyping and development of new optimization
  algorithms. In particular, the focus is on robust and efficient
  algorithms for problems in which the function and constraint
  evaluations require the execution of an expensive computer
  simulation. Currently, OPT++ includes the classic Newton methods, a
  nonlinear interior-point method, parallel direct search, generating
  set search, a trust region - parallel direct search hybrid, and a
  wrapper to NPSOL. Between these methods, a wide range of problems
  can be solved, e.g. with or without constraints, with or without
  analytic gradients, simulation based, etc.
