We would like to announce the availability of a new
code for solving large nonlinear optimization problems
with bounds on the variables.

The program, called L-BFGS-B, implements a limited memory BFGS
algorithm. The user must supply the gradient g of f, but knowledge
about Hessian matrix is not required. This program is an 
extension of algorithm L-BFGS (Harwell routine VA15) which can handle
only unconstrained problems.

Both codes can be obtained via anonymous ftp at eecs.nwu.edu.
They are in the directories pub/lbfgs and pub/lbfgs.unc.
More detailed information can be obtained at
http://www.eecs.nwu.edu/~ciyou or http://www.eecs.nwu.edu/~nocedal
