A Computer Program for Quadratic Mathematical Models To Be Used for Aircraft Design and Other Applications Involving Linear Constraints

摘要: Abstract : The report contains a user's guide and listing of FORTRAN 4 computer program, called RS QPF4/360, that minimizes quadratic function nonnegative variables subject to linear constraints. Originally developed provide smooth fit for segments three-dimensional surfaces such as wings, fuselages, ship hulls, the program applies generally least squares fitting with It may be used inventory control, missile tracking, weather, reliability studies. A conversion an earlier Rand use on IBM 360/65, double-precision code is all in core, no time-consuming calls peripheral equipment. size data storage can easily set by user. Problem usually limited inverse basis, although are packed storage. Familiarity terminology M series programming codes submitted SHARE assumed. (Author)
